What educators are saying

It was a very helpful tool to help see what my students know independently about the skill and standard. I really enjoyed the problems and the questions and directions were very explicit.
This skill was very overwhelming for my students using Euerka. This was a great way to show them that they could do the math overall because it had simpler fraction for them to solve with. It gave them a boost of confidence.

What type of problems can I expect to find in this “Area of Rectangles with Mixed Numbers” lesson? 

  • In this lesson, students will find the area of rectangles with at least one side length that is a mixed number
  • This lesson includes rectangles that are “fraction x mixed number”,  “whole number x mixed number”, and “mixed number x mixed number.” 
  • Some problems include a diagram of the rectangle and others just give the dimensions, allowing students to draw their own.  
  • This lesson includes word problems involving the area of rectangles and other problems where just a model or dimensions are given. 

What does Sally’s “gradual release model” entail? 

  • Sally’s lessons follow an “I Do, We Do, You Do” format.  A math concept is introduced whole group, students then practice with a partner, and finish with independent work time.  This deliberate scaffolding keeps students from feeling defeated or frustrated! 
  • Sally’s packets also build slowly in difficulty.  We meet students where they are, regardless of level.  As students gain confidence, the problems get progressively harder.  Not all students will complete all problems and that is by design!  
  • Each packet finishes with a “Challenge Page” for anyone who needs something extra!  

In addition to the deliberate scaffolding, this “Multiplying Fractions & Mixed Numbers to Find Area” packet includes an instructional guide jam-packed with teaching hacks and best practices.  There is also a “Misconceptions” section that allows you to be one step ahead of mistakes students are most likely to make.

This Multiplying Fractions & Mixed Numbers to Find Area is common core aligned to 5th grade standard 5.NF.4b (area of rectangles with fractions & mixed numbers).
