Students will be able to find equivalent fractions using the bar model. The teacher will show how to use the bar model to generate equivalent fractions. Then, students will work through a similar process in pairs to generate a few fractions that are equivalent to a single fraction. Each pair will create a poster of their equivalent fractions, and the class will discuss the patterns, rules, or generalization they noticed. Also, students are going to use the posters to help make comparisons among fractions with unlike denominators in a story context

Our 4th graders will soon begin an exciting new social studies unit about migration. During this unit, students will explore why people and animals move from one place to another and how migration impacts communities, environments, and living things. Students will also study the cause and effects migration can have on families, cultures, ecosystems, and populations. Through discussions, reading activities, and research they will strengthen their understanding of the people and phenomena around them.
