    SEPTEMBER 6-9, 2016   

    Tuesday: We worked on understanding basic concept of how to model dividing fractions. We are focusing that we are putting the second number into groups and identifying how many groups were formed. Homework is to finish the front page of classwork.

    Wednesday: Continuing with modeling with basic numbers and circling to place into groups. Homework is complete the page with model drawing!!!!

    Thursday: Begin to work with drawing and understanding that common denominators is another way to divide fractions. Homework: complete classwork 

    Friday: Teach short trick of Keep it, Change it, Flip it with reciprocal to find the solution. Ex: 5/6 divided by 2 is the same as multiplying by a half.

    Test over distributive property and dividing fractions will be 9/14/2016.

     August 29th-September 2nd

    Monday: students were retaught the 4 most missed problems from the test by using similar word problems. We underlined key facts and reasoned about how to solve the problems without really using the words multiples or factors. (a lot times students get hung up on the term of what they are to do instead of trying to rationally find an answer. A lot of the problems could be solved by drawings.) After re-teaching they had an opportunity to make corrections independently. I will reward ½ credit for problems they were independently able to correct.

    Tuesday/Wednesday: Work on distributive property; example 30 + 40 = 10 (3 + 4)

    Thursday: Universal screener in math online

    Friday: dividing fractions with model drawing

    *Homework sheet (3 problems each day for this week)
