TOPIC D: Multi-Step Problems with Fractions
Dear Family,
Your student is learning to use their knowledge of operations and fractions to model and solve multi-step problems that require the use of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Students evaluate expressions with parentheses and use tape diagrams to make sense of the expressions. They recognize that the same equation can be represented in different ways.

Lesson 18
Compare and evaluate expressions with parentheses.
I can evaluate expressions with parentheses by using tape diagrams to help me make sense of the expressions. I can then use reasoning to compare the values of expressions and statements without evaluating.

Create and solve one-step word problems involving fractions.
I can write one-step word problems to match a tape diagram or an expression.

Solve multi-step word problems involving fractions and write equations with parentheses.
I can use the Read–Draw–Write process to solve word problems. I can use a tape diagram to find a solution method that uses fewer steps.

Solve multi-step word problems involving fractions.
I can use the Read–Draw–Write process to solve multi-step word problems involving fractions. I notice when my tape diagram represents the unknown of the word problem, and when it does not, I can revise or draw another tape.
