This educational resource focuses on the concept of fraction multiplication through visual aids and manipulatives. By illustrating the process step-by-step, students can grasp how to shade and divide geometric shapes, such as trapezoids and triangles, to represent fractions. It includes interactive video lessons that guide learners through solving specific problems while providing an opportunity to check their solutions. Ideal for visual learners seeking to solidify their understanding of fraction multiplication and its applications.

Products Via Pattern Blocks Guided Example: where the whole is → Shade ¼ of the whole Hint: The shaded region should be a trapezoid. → Outline ¼ of the whole and divide the whole into three equal parts (Hint: think green triangles). Shade one of the three equal parts (again think green triangles). → At this point you should have one triangle shaded which represents 1/12 of the whole. Thus,
Problems from Part 2 of the handout • For each problem illustrate the process of multiplication with the manipulatives on separate sheets of paper (triangle paper).
