5th Grade Applied Math Scaffolded Notes (by date, latest first)

This is all of my fraction resources that I use with my 6th graders.

This slideshow and corresponding notes & practice packet focus on division with unit fractions including 1/a divided by b and a divided by 1/b. There are some bonus/challenge problems included for students needing more of a challenge that have mixed numbers and non-unit fractions.

This uses visuals and connects to students prior knowledge about division as dividing into equal groups or dividing into groups of a certain size. It does not use Keep Change Flip or any tricks.
