Patterns exhibit relationships that can be extended, described, and generalized.
Geometric relationships can be described, analyzed, and classified based on spatial reasoning and/or visualization.
How can patterns be used to describe relationships in mathematical situations?
How can recognizing repetition or regularity assist in solving problems more efficiently?
How are spatial relationships, including shape and dimension, used to draw, construct, model, and represent real situations or solve problems.
How can the application of the attributes of geometric shapes support mathematical reasoning and problem solving?
How can geometric properties and theorems be used to describe, model, and analyze situations?
Video introducing through song fractions 1/2, 1/4, 3/4 etc.
This video demonstrates how to take pool noodles and cut them into different fraction lengths to use to compare fractions or show equivalent fractions etc.
This is a fraction review game where the person holding the start card will have to say what fraction they have based on a picture shown with parts shaded in. Then they will have a fraction listed at the bottom that they have to ask who has that fraction for example 1/2 etc.... Play continues until the person with the end card announces they have that card.
Choose the fraction set or skill that you want students to practice and distribute that sheet.The packet includes games to help recognize and write fractions, produce and color fractions, practice fraction equivalents, and work on fraction-decimal conversion.
Students learn about fractions while making circle art. Their artwork shows a circle divided into fourths, eighths, and sixteenths. Provide students with a variety of colored construction paper. Have each of them choose four colors. Next, they trace a circle pattern on each color and cut it out. Using a ruler, they divide their circles into fractions. They should create one to represent one whole, fourths, eighths, and sixteenths. Then, they create their fraction design!
