Description
Fraction concepts and basic fraction vocabulary are easy to understand with this math wheel note-taking format.
What is a math wheel? A math wheel is a type of graphic organizer where students can:
- Take notes inside the math wheel
- Use color, drawing, and doodling to help create memory triggers
- Complete practice problems in the pattern around the wheel, and
- Color the background pattern
Students can keep these graphic organizers in their interactive notebooks all year as a resource/study tool.
- The wheels are excellent for reviewing concepts as part of your test prep.
- You can even enlarge the math wheels and use them as posters or anchor charts!
This resource was updated on 4/8/24 to include TWO versions, with THREE notes options for each. One version is the original Fraction Concepts wheel and one is a newer version, so you can choose which is best for your students!
These fraction notes would be helpful for upper elementary students who need fraction intervention or a quick review of fraction concepts before getting into fraction operations.
- While this fraction resource addresses 3rd grade standards and is used for 3rd grade, it has also been used with many 4th and 5th grade classes.
The sections of the original wheel are:
1) Fraction
2) Numerator
3) Denominator
4) Examples
The sections of the new version are:
1) Fraction
2) Numerator (and Unit Fraction)
3) Denominator
4) What Fraction? - includes practice models and 3 word problems
This resource includes:
1) Two options of student math wheel (original and new)
- THREE versions of EACH of these options
- One ‘open,’ with notes to be written in
- One with fill-in-the-blanks for the notes, to help control the amount of space students use
- One with pre-filled notes for students who need this (these do not include answers)
2) Teacher keys/wheels with completed notes and examples
3) Colored samples of wheels
4) A PowerPoint file that has a blank wheel with background, so you can add text to make your own math wheels, if you’d like (for classroom use only - not commercial use).
Features of this easy-to-use fraction resource:
- Notes sections and examples
- Guided practice or individual practice: 17 or 18 images of fractions in the pattern around the circle, for students to practice identifying fractions.
- Students identify by coloring the section according to the Color Code found on the wheel sheet
- Coloring/doodling opportunity: students can color the rest of the background pattern, as well as the headings and doodle arrows
Differences between the original and new wheels:
1) Original wheel: is very basic, with one example per term, but with room for you to add additional examples if you’d like.
New wheel: has several examples in each section and more notes than the original.
2) Original wheel: the examples section has 4 models (circles, rectangles) for which you can choose what fraction you’d like students to show by coloring the correct number of sections. They can write in the fractions as well.
New wheel: the ‘What Fraction’ section also has models to color (I have examples on the key and sample, but you can choose whatever fraction you’d like them to color), but also includes three word problems.
3) Practice around the wheel is the same on both wheels, but the color code is located in different places.
Original wheel: color code is in the example section.
New wheel: color code is in the upper left corner of the pattern, and students can color that part of the pattern when they have finished all the practice problems and don’t need to use the key any more.
