Unit focus

  • Students rename fractions with common denominators, combine or separate equal-sized parts and interpret results that may cross a whole, using diagrams, number lines and equations.
  • Use this routine: Represent → Reason → Calculate → Interpret → Verify.
  • Watch for numerators and denominators both added: Keep the common denominator because part size does not change.
