MATH TALES is here to bring a new twist to practicing math! Kids to the MATH and help write the "TALE". When my students are working on Math Tales, I see fist pumps, hear laughter, and the kids want to share their "Tale" that they helped write.

Check out this video to see how they work: How Math Tales Work

Use this activity for homework, in-class practice, individually, or in pairs/groups...any way you use these, the kids are sure to have some fun.

Plus they are SELF-CHECKING! Easy to grade!

Then, download the freebies and see how much fun they are:

This is what you can expect in this Math Tales Activity:

The Math: There are 16 problems involving the division of fractions. The first 9 problems provide number line diagrams to model the division process. The rest of them do not provide a model. A tutorial on how to use the number line as a model is included in the activity.
