It is always a good strategy to review essential skills with your students, and this is right up there with the most essential!

This fun real-life fractions exercise deals with a situation adults (especially those of us with OCD) have all faced - how to hang pictures on a wall with equal spaces between each picture. Students will face this real-life situation where they will use addition of fractions, subtraction of fractions, multiplication of fractions and division of fractions to hang these pictures equal distances apart. The exercise gives practice with proper fractions, mixed numbers, improper fractions, converting between mixed and improper fractions, obtaining the LCD, simplifying fractions etc.

• Fractions are important for all students
• Fractions are tough for many students
• Fractions are often not very exciting to most students
• Fractions are too often removed from "the real world".

I love quick assessments that show me students understood the lesson. I built these exit tickets base on Into Math modules 1 -10 for 5th grade. I use these after teaching the lesson, sending home the More Practice/Homework page complete for homework, and then the next day they take the exit ticket. I can quickly glance at the tickets and set aside the ones I will need to meet with to solidify the concept taught for the lesson that was missed.

Set includes:

• Exit tickets for every lesson for modules 1 - 10
• Highlighted and color coded words to decode what the problem is asking
• Plenty of space for students to show their work
• Answer Key for every exit ticket

Save money and buy the bundle! By purchasing the Into Math Exit Slips Bundle you are saving $30.00 off the price. Check out the Bundle by clicking HERE.
