Lesson 6

Equivalent Fractions on Number Lines

Est. Class Sessions: 2–3

Homework and Practice

  • Assign the problems in the Homework section of the Student Guide to provide practice finding equivalent fractions to make true number sentences.
  • Send home Games 1, 2, or 3 of the Fraction Trails Games pages in the Student Activity Book for students to play with family members. They will need the game directions and game boards sections, and the Fraction Games Spinners pages from the Student Activity Book. Remind them to use a pencil and paper clip for a spinner.

Allow students to choose which game, Fraction Trails 1, 2, or 3, they will play with their families for homework. They will likely choose the game that best fits their skill level.

  • Assign DPP items S–V. In Task T, students compare fractions to the benchmarks of 1/2 and 1 whole.
  • DPP Task V can be used as the Problem of the Week.

Math Facts. In Bit S, students practice finding the fact families for the multiplication facts for the 5s and 10s. In Bit U, students practice using the multiplication facts to solve problems involving multiples of ten. In Task V, students solve a multistep problem involving nickels and dimes to practice the multiplication facts for the 5s and 10s.
