Focus: Fraction Addition
Learning Target: I can find the sum of fractions with like denominators.
Learning Target: I can find the sum of fractions with like denominators.
Task: Determine the sum for each situation from Monday's slideshow. USE Brainingcamp FRACTION TILES to help solve. DRAW the picture from Brainingcamp in your math notebook to show your thinking and the answer. USE color or labels on your drawing.
ONLY PROBLEMS BEFORE SLIDE 9!!
Solve each of the 15 problems in your notebook.
You only need to draw a model for ANY FIVE. Be sure to use two colors or identify both addends in a different way. Circle the sum in the model.
The other 10 problems you may solve mentally. You still need to write out the equation as modeled during class.
List the first 8 multiples of the number 4. Circle all the multiples of 4 you wrote that are also multiples of 8.

Learning Target: I can find the sum of fractions and mixed numbers with like denominators.
Task:
Solve each of the 14 problems in your notebook.
Draw a model for #1 and #5. Be sure to use two colors or identify both addends in a different way (drawing a pattern inside).
The other 11 problems you may solve mentally. You still need to write out the equation as modeled during class.
ALL IMPROPER FRACTIONS SHOULD BE SHOWN IN FRACTION FORM FIRST; THEN CHANGE INTO A MIXED NUMBER.
List the factors of 81. Circle any that are also factors of 6.

Task: CLICK on the button below for your class. Determine the sum for each situation.
USE Math Learning Center PATTERN BLOCKS to help determine fractional value of pieces (if needed)
Sum might be IMPROPER (bigger numerator/smaller denominator)...change to a mixed number.
