Engaging Lesson & Notes



Lesson 1
​
Source: Investigations Unit 6

​​​Materials: 
  • 4th-m7.pdf
  • 4th-m11
  • student practice book
Lesson: session 1.3 and 1.4
Math Focus Points:
  • Finding fractional parts of a group/rectangular area (obs: this can be an extension of the geoboard activity)
  • Comparing the same fractional parts of a different-sized wholes
​
Number Talk : Is 1/2 of our class the same size as 1/2 of Mr. P's class? How do you know?

​Teaching Tips: you can use the different rectangles to show different 1/2, 1/4, 1/8 -(the 4x6) and (5x12) or continue using the geoboards (note that all geoboards are 4x6)

Differentiation:

Formative Assessment:
​
unit 1.5 and 1.6- Note that this can also be assessed by the geoboard activity (making combos part)


​
Homework:
Student Activity Book pages 9-10 and 24,30 and 60
