Grade 4-Recall multiplication facts up to 10 10

and related division facts (VCMNA155)
Grade 5-Use estimation and rounding to check the
reasonableness of answers to calculations
(VCMNA182)
-Solve problems involving division by a one digit
number, including those that result in a remainder
(VCMNA184)
-Use efficient mental and written strategies and
apply appropriate digital technologies to solve
problems(VCMNA185)

Compare and order common unit fractions

and locate and represent them on a number
line (VCMNA187)

what is the connection

between multiplication
and division?

session

Compare and order common unit fractions and

locate and represent them on a number line
(VCMNA187)

Compare and order common unit fractions and

locate and represent them on a number line
(VCMNA187)

What different types of

fractions are there and
how can you represent
them?

What is a unit fraction?

What is a denominator?

What is a number line?

Are all numbers line from
0-1?

3 dice- roll 2 and multiply

together. roll the last dice and
divide the product by that
number.

Flip a fraction- flip 2 cards

each. Person with the fraction
closest to one whole wins the
cards.

Fraction match cards - give

each student a card as they
walk in and they need to find
a partner (or group of three).
When seated together on the
mat they will brainstorm
equivalent fractions to the
ones on their card.

Fractions and decimals pair

card game (5min).

-from maths test you werent

looking at reasonableness.
could $5.25x10= roughly
$15?
-186/3 how could we simplify?
180/3 and 6/3=62.
-anything divided by four can
be halved and halved again.
-Fact Families (triangles)

Do fractions pre-test
Go through the different types
of fractions. Demonstrate how
students will work in pairs to
create a short lego movie,
showing all different fractions
in the real world. Dont just
show fractions like , be
creative! can you add

What is a unit fraction?

Students will be exposed to

number lines today. First
choose a student to place
half on the number line.
discuss why they chose that
position. Give another student
2 whole, continue from there.

Investigate strategies to solve problems

involving addition and subtraction of fractions
with the same denominator (VCMNA188)

Why do we write fractions the

way we do?
What is a denominator? What
is a numerator? What does
the fraction bar mean?

Exit passes from last lesson. 4

students were identified as
significantly low. these
students will therefore be
doing a different task.

Evidence

I have...who has.

Division drag racing-Abcya

Make two anchor charts

explaining what an improper
fraction is and what a mixed
number is. Demonstrate how
to convert between.

Discuss how students went

with converting between
mixed and improper fractions.
-Get Biya to share how she
easily worked out her
answers (using division).

Lows- Fraction wall and

question cards.
Mids and highs- Converting
mixed numbers and improper
fractions cards.

students can choose whether

they would like to work on
more converting between
mixed and improper fractions
or work on worded fraction
questions.

Mids and highs-what is a

mixed number?
-convert an improper fraction
to a mixed number.
lows- a question from their
sheet.

Exit pass from yesterday, that

didnt get completed.
