This lesson plan focuses on teaching students about fractions. The key learning goals are for students to understand fractions and fractional amounts. Expected learning outcomes are that all students will be able to write fractions to represent parts of a whole and compare the size of fractions. Formative assessment opportunities include checking students' work on practice problems and pages 22-26 of their textbooks. Cognitive challenges for all ability levels include collaborative learning and summarizing. Resources include worksheets and textbooks. As homework, students will complete additional practice problems and questions. The lesson will begin with an introduction to fractions, followed by an activity where students represent fractions using shapes. Students will then work through practice problems in their textbooks before finishing with a formative assessment of questions.
