What educators are saying

This resource was challenging for my students but they were engaged and collaborated with their peers. Great resource!

Description

Whenever possible, I look for ways to incorporate aspects of the Montessori philosophy into my homemade materials. In this case, I looked for ways to teach students a bit about nature/gardening and inspire them to then conduct independent research based on the facts they learned.

These materials were created to be a follow-up activity after the initial instruction is presented. It can be used as a Montessori shelf-work, as a small-group center work, a digital follow-up activity, or as a homework assignment.

This set contains:

-20 task cards

-A student recording sheet

-An answer key

-

If using this in classroom setting, I recommend printing the cards on cardstock, cutting them out, and laminating them.

During virtual learning, you can also assign these cards to students using Google Apps.

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
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.)
Solve word problems involving addition and subtraction of fractions referring to the same whole, including cases of unlike denominators, e.g., by using visual fraction models or equations to represent the problem. Use benchmark fractions and number sense of fractions to estimate mentally and assess the reasonableness of answers. For example, recognize an incorrect result 2/5 + 1/2 = 3/7, by observing that 3/7 < 1/2.
