  1. Session 1.3 More Than One Piece

  2. Review • What does the numerator in a fraction stand for? • What does the denominator in a fraction stand for? • Order the fraction strips below from least to greatest.

  3. I folded a piece of paper into fourths. What fraction is each of the piece of paper I have folded?

  4. Now look at the paper. I cut a piece out. What fraction did I cut out of the paper? What fraction do I have left?

  5. Check your answers! 3 4 1 4

  6. With a partner you will add more pieces to your fraction set • Each student will receive 5 sheets of white paper. • You will need to fold each paper into halves, fourths, eighths, thirds, and sixths. • After you fold the paper into fractional parts, you are NOT going to cut out all of the pieces like you did last time. • Instead you are going to cut out only 1 piece as I did for the fourths. For each sheet you make, you will label the piece you cut out and also the piece that is left (Just as I labeled the ¼ and ¾ when I did the fourths example). • If you finish early, see if you can put all of the fractions you cut out in order from least to greatest. • You will have about 20 minutes to complete this with your partner.

  7. Fractions Chart • We are going to create a fractions chart on chart paper that we will record and keep track of things we notice or discover that are true about fractions. We will add to this throughout the unit and leave it handing up in the room for you to refer to. • Let’s refer back to the example I did with the fourths. If I combine the two fractions ¼ and ¾ what will I have? How could I write an equation that says that one fourth and three fourths equals a whole? • What other ways can you think of to make a whole with fractions? With your partner use your fraction sets to find different ways to make a whole. Be prepared to share and record on our fractions chart. Label your fractions chart with 2 sections. The first section titled “Halves, Thirds, Sixths” and the other titled “Halves, Fourths, and Eighths.”

  8. Independent Practice • Students will complete Unit 7 pg. 7 from their student activity book. • Ticket Out: Give student a half sheet of lined paper. Have students choose 3 things we recorded on our fraction chart and illustrate them using pictures.
