What educators are saying
I loved this PowerPoint. We use Saxton math and it spirals. So you get a small section to learning a lessons. This resource helped me understand fractions even more. My students thought it to be engaging.
This was excellent for bridging the learning between adding/subtracting with like and unlike denominators.
Description
This is your "go-to" PowerPoint for teaching students how to add and subtract fractions with unlike denominators. The animation and visuals will help students understand WHY they need to find a common denominator before they can add or subtract fractions that have unlike denominators. The thought bubbles will help focus and think critically about what they are doing and why it makes sense.

CCSS5.NF.A.1
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.)
