CK-12 is an open publisher that claims the rights to any modifications of its materials. You are free to copy and use their materials as is but must follow their guidelines if modifications are made.

The site Visual Fractions was developed by a middle school teacher. The original focus on fractions has expanded to include online calculators. There are however many distratcting ads which could be an impediment for some learners. We are highlighting the fractions materials, which are comprehensive and provide a complete resource for teaching fractions. Lessons contain  explanations, pre and post tests, optional online practice and worksheet practice. Sections of the lessons can also be accessed on their own:

• Worksheets cover all fractions topics

• Explanations are instructional explanations covering various fraction skills and strategies presented in slide sets

• Fraction designer allows you to create custom visuals of fractions 

Copyrighted. PDFs provided. You can also use snippets of the online activities but link back to the original source. 

Fraction Talks challenge students to identify fractional amounts in an image. The developer of the site states "Fraction Talks are a built around classroom talk and student action. These two principles guide the teacher’s questions, disposition, and facilitation of the activity. They can be become a daily routine, or used for entire lessons." Take a look at the 12 days of fractions talks to get started. Also read the short explanation from the developer. A recording sheet is also available.
