In this easy lesson, we don't yet study the fraction notation, but just learn the concepts related to halves, thirds, and fourths (quarters). I show these by coloring in the corresponding parts. We also compare two given fractions by coloring. It's basically pretty fun! Fractions don't need to be difficult, scary "monsters" at all! Check out my other videos at and my fraction workbook at

We study simple fractions, such as halves, thirds, and fourths, and how to write those with the proper fraction notation. Then, we look at rectangles on a grid - in other words, with "little squares". We divide such rectangles into fractional parts, such as thirds or fourths, and then check how many "little squares" are in the fractional part versus in the whole. This is of course preparing students for the concepts of AREA (studied in 3rd grade) and finding a fractional part of a quantity. We still get to do lots of coloring and things are done with visual models (concrete), so this is not anything difficult! Check out also my other videos at

This lesson focuses on finding ONE-HALF of a given number and also ties in this concept with the process of DOUBLING. We start out by using visual models to find half of 12, half of 14, and half of 48. Then, I show how finding the double of a number is the OPPOSITE of finding half of a number. Lastly we solve some word problems. A ready-made doubles chart helps us with that. Check out also my other 2nd grade math videos at

We compare simple fractions by using visual models (pies or rectangles). In the end, I ask an interesting question about 1/2 of a rectangle cut one way, versus 1/2 of a rectangle cut another way - which will be the bigger piece? Children might not intuitively know that 1/2 of a rectangle will be equal to 1/2 of a rectangle, now matter how it is cut, but I show, using quarters, that the pieces must be equal in size.
