Description

These Google Slides lessons explore writing fractions that are greater than one whole as both mixed numbers and improper fractions. The lessons use concrete modeling to help build conceptual understanding of improper fractions and mixed numbers. They also introduce algorithms for changing from improper to mixed and mixed to improper.

Lesson 1: What are improper fractions and mixed numbers?

  • uses pizza visuals to build conceptual understanding of fractions and explain what mixed numbers and improper fractions are
  • shows how to use a mixed numbers and improper fractions to represent an amount of pizza and demonstrates how the same amount of pizza could be represented using equivalent mixed numbers and improper fractions
  • provides 6 independent practice problems (just click to reveal the answers) with access to a FREE printable worksheet.

Lesson 2: Changing improper fractions to mixed numbers

  • explains why we might need to do this
  • uses a visual fraction model to change an improper fraction to a mixed number
  • shows how to use division as a shortcut to change an improper fraction to a mixed number (with several examples)
  • provides 6 independent practice problems (just click to reveal the answers) with access to a FREE printable worksheet.

Lesson 3: Changing mixed numbers to improper fractions

  • explains why we might need to do this
  • uses a visual fraction model to change a mixed number to an improper fraction
  • shows how to use multiplication and addition as a shortcut to change a mixed number to an improper fraction (with several examples)
  • provides 6 independent practice problems (just click to reveal the answers) with access to a FREE printable worksheet.

Explain why a fraction 𝘢/𝘣 is equivalent to a fraction (𝘯 × 𝘢)/(𝘯 × 𝘣) by using visual fraction models, with attention to how the number and size of the parts differ even though the two fractions themselves are the same size. Use this principle to recognize and generate equivalent fractions.
Add and subtract mixed numbers with like denominators, e.g., by replacing each mixed number with an equivalent fraction, and/or by using properties of operations and the relationship between addition and subtraction.
Add and subtract fractions with unlike denominators (including mixed numbers) by replacing given fractions with equivalent fractions in such a way as to produce an equivalent sum or difference of fractions with like denominators. For example, 2/3 + 5/4 = 8/12 + 15/12 = 23/12. (In general, 𝘢/𝘣 + 𝘤/𝘥 = (𝘢𝘥 + 𝘣𝘤)/𝘣𝘥.)
