    Lesson:

    Cut out transparency pieces of worksheets 1 and 2. Distribute one copy of worksheet #1 and halfof worksheet #2 to each student. Have students color the strips appropriately and then cut the

    pieces. Next, have students put the pieces in piles according to color.

    Have students show one whole. Most will display a red strip. Accept any equivalent answer.

    Next, have students show one whole using different pieces. Answers will vary such as2

    2,

    3

    3,

    etc. Have a student or two show this using the transparency pieces. Remind students that the

    denominator tells how many equal parts are needed to make a whole. The numerator tells howmany of those equal parts exist.

    Write8

    4on the transparency. Have students place eight

    1

    4pieces on their workmat. Next, have

    students tell another name for

    8

    4 . (2)

    Have students place 1 red piece and 2 orange pieces on the work mat. Ask students how much

    they have. (3

    21 ) Write

    3

    21 on the chalkboard or transparency. Tell students that this is a mixed

    number. Ask why they think it is a mixed number. (It is made up of a whole number and afraction). Have students write this term and its meaning in their journals.

    Write5

    43 on the chalkboard or transparency. Have students write .

    5

    43 Have a student show

    this mixed number using the transparency pieces. Follow this same procedure for612 .

    Have students take 5 yellow pieces and place them on the workmat. Ask how much they

    have.

    4

    11 Since

    5

    4will not fit in one column, tell students to make the connection that they

    have more than 1.

    Give each student an envelope and have them write their name on them envelope they are given.

    Instruct students to place their fraction pieces in envelopes.

    Write9

    4on the chalkboard or transparency. Tell students that

    9

    4is an improper fraction. This

    means the numerator is larger than the denominator. Direct students to write this in their math

    journals. Ask students to name the denominator. (4) Ask how many parts it takes to make up a

    whole. (4) Ask how many parts they have. (9) Ask how many wholes they can make from9

    4.

    (2) Place the eight1

    4pieces on the transparency workmat to show the two wholes. (1) Place

    that1

    4piece on the work mat. Check that students understand that

    9

    4is equal to

    4

    12 . Tell

    students that this is a proper fraction because the numerator is smaller than the denominator.

    Tell students that division can also be used to change a fraction to a mixed number. Write6

    14on

    the chalkboard or transparency. Tell students to do the same in their math journals. Review the

    following steps with class.

    Step 1: Multiply the whole number times the denominator, 10 3 = 30

    Step 2: Add the numerator. 10 3 + 2 = 32

    Step 3: Write the answer as the new numerator32

    3. Use the original denominator as

    the denominator. Example: 10+2

    3; 10 3 + 2 = 32;

    Display the study board so that the students can follow along as you show them how to changemixed numbers to improper fractions.

    Say: An important skill in multiplication and division of fractions is changing a mixed number,

    such as 21

    4, to an improper fraction.

    Write the steps down as you say them.

    Example 1. Change 31

    4

    to an improper fraction.

    Step 1. Multiply the denominator by the whole number. 4 3 = 12Step 2. Add the product and the numerator. 12 + 1 = 13

    Step 3. Write the sum over the denominator.13

    Copy this and use it to reteach the lesson. Give the sample problem to see if studentsunderstand the rules for adding fractions with like denominators.

    Adding Fractions with Like Denominators

    problem. Show students3

    5+

    1

    5. Say: Add the numerators (3 + 1 = 4). The

    denominator remains the same. The answer is4

    5. Say: I am going to show you a set of

    cards with addition problems of fractions with like denominators on them. I want you to

    solve the problems.

    When adding fractions with like denominators, add the numerators. Dont do anything to

    the denominator because it is the same. Write it under the numerator. Example:

    26

    + 26

    = 46

    .

    Explain to the students that they are going to do an activity on solving addition problems

    of fractions with like denominators. Tell them when you lay the index card on the table,they are going to risk writing the answer. Give the students one to two minutes to solvethe problem. As you turn the card over, say: The answer is Do the rest of the cards

    the same way. If you have not taught reducing fractions, just have the students completethe problems with no simplifying. Store the index cards and study board in the envelope.
