Description
This engaging, digital Desmos math activity is designed to help 3rd Grade Math students develop fluency and confidence with understanding the meaning of fractions on a number line. It is excellent for building number sense, and comparing and ordering fractions with like denominators on a number line.
- Students experience the strategy of drawing arcs (along the tick marks) to make sense of fractions on the number line. This helps them obtain the correct denominator. They explain the meaning of fractions using sentence frames and later draw their own number lines to locate fractions.
- They also engage in error analysis and locate fractions on the number line using the drag and drop method.
- Built-in feedback on some of the pages allows students to check their work and refine their thinking, if needed, on the drag-and-drop problems! In this way, they engage in self-monitoring skills!
- Although the standards are primarily 3rd grade for representing fractions on the number line, I would use this with my 7th graders because many students often need the reinforcement of the meaning of fractions and how to locate them accurately on the number line, attending to precision. At-risk, struggling students in high school could even benefit if they have fractions gaps or misconceptions.
Key Words: Third Grade Math Fractions Activity, Locating Fractions on the Number Line Digital Activity, Locating Fractions on a Number Line, Fractions on a Number Line, 3rd Grade Math Fractions Assessment, 4th Grade Fractions Math Response to Intervention Activity RTI,
3rd and 4th Grade Math Centers Activity
