Fractions on my Mind

We are busy getting our kiddos ready for our end of the year exam.  I'm amazed at the progress they've shown through the year, but there are always things that we need work on.  One thing that several of our kiddos need help with fractions of a group.  We have an intervention time that we rotate every 2 weeks.  So this week, fractions of a group is on the menu!  :)

I have created a fun plan for helping them wrap their heads around this concept.  It is set up using a gradual release of responsibility:

Day 1 - Pretest/Teach/Launch/Review

Day 2 - Model

Day 3 - Practice Together

Day 4 - Practice Together

Day 5 - Independent Practice

Day 6 - Independent Practice

Day 7 - Review and Test

Throughout these 7-9 days, I have compiled videos and lessons, pre/post-tests, as well as a Smarties fraction activity and a Froggy Fraction Fun Task Card activity for you to work on with your kiddos.

I hope you'll check it out and find it useful in your room!  Click here for the plans.

Thanks so much!

Rachel,

and as always,
