Lets Review- QUESTIONS TO ANSWER

1. WHAT IS A FRACTION?

   Fractions are parts of a whole or group

2. WHAT ARE THE PARTS OF A FRACTION?

   Numerator and Denominator. The numerator tells how man parts

   ( the top number) and the denominator tell how may pieces a whole has been divided into ( the bottom number).

3. WHAT WORDS COME TO MIND WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT FRACTIONS?

   Parts, portion , percentage, fragments, pieces

4. HOW ARE FRACTIONS RELATED TO DIVISION.

   a fractions can be used to represent a division problem. The numerator is the divisor and the denominator is the divident. You divide the numerator by the denominator.

Today's Lesson

I can identify the various types of fractions.

I can compose the various types of fractions.

I can identify the fractions that can be transformed into another kind of fraction.

Open Ended

Think Pair Share. List as many types of fractions you can think of.

How many from this list did you have?

1. Unit Fraction

2. Proper Fraction

3. Whole Fraction

4. Improper Fraction

5. Equivalent Fractions

6. Mixed Fraction

7. Like Fractions

8. Unlike Fractions

   In your groups define and give an example of each fraction. Also list if you cant convert this the fraction into another form.

Now That We Know

1. Unit Fraction- any fraction with 1 as the numerator

2. Proper Fraction- A fraction where numerator is smaller than the denominator

3. Whole Fraction- A fraction that has the same numerator and denominator

4. Improper Fraction- A fraction where numerator is greater than or equal to the denominator

5. Equivalent Fractions- fractions that represent same quantity

6. Mixed Fraction- A fraction which has a combination of a whole number and a proper fraction

7. Like Fractions- Fractions with same denominators

8. Unlike Fractions- Fractions with different denominators

Name one type of fraction that can be can be converted (turned into) to another form) ?

The bottom number in a fraction.

​Lapbook and Notebook

Add the types of fractions along with definition and example to your lapbook or notebook

DENOMINATOR

The bottom number in a fraction.

Shows how many equal parts the item is divided
into.

FRACTION

How many parts of a whole:

NUMERATOR

The top number in a fraction.

Shows how many parts we have.

EQUIVALENT FRACTION

Fractions which have the same value, even though they
may look different.

Task: Write a set of equivalent fractions.

Example 1/2 and 2/4 are equivalent, because they are
both "half"
