Crisp and clear. Great product, I would recommend it to buyers. Thank you for taking the time to create it! You are valued!
I really enjoyed using this resource with my students. Directions were clear and easy to use and the resource is visually appealing. My students were engaged and motivated and I will definitely use this again in the future. Good value for money.

Description

Use visual models along with the standard algorithm to quickly and effectively teach your students how to divide fractions with this comprehensive resource pack.

Using visual models, students will have a more hands-on approach to “see” what it looks like when dividing unit fractions by whole numbers and dividing whole numbers by unit fractions in addition to using the standard algorithm.  It’s great for kinesthetic learners as well as students that may struggle with memorizing algorithms.

A mini-lesson on dividing fractions by fractions (6th grade standard 6.NS.1) is also provided and can be used with students who quickly master dividing with unit fractions.  Great for differentiation!

This resource is complete, concise, and easy to follow with a clear format.  It is low-prep and easy to assign to a sub.  If your students are struggling with fraction operations, this resource is for you!

Supports Common Core Standards (CCSS):  5.NF.7, 5.NF.7a, 5.NF.7b, 5.NF.7c, 6.NS.1

This resource is included in a year-long 5th Grade Math Curriculum Bundle.

The Mini-Lessons Included:  

  • Fraction Notes Pages for Simplifying Fractions and Converting Improper Fractions to Mixed Numbers 
  • Divide Unit Fractions by Whole Numbers with Visual Models
  • Divide Whole Numbers by Unit Fractions with Visual Models
  • Divide Fractions Using the Standard Algorithm
  • Divide Fractions with Word Problems

What You’ll Get in EACH of the mini-lessons:  

  • Detailed Notes
  • Sample Problems
  • 1-2 Practice Pages 
  • 2 Exit Tickets

You’ll Also Get:  

  • Quiz

How Can You Use This?

Introduce each skill with the detailed set of notes and sample problems.  I suggest doing this in a whole group setting and pulling the PDF up on a Smartboard so students can annotate over the models.

Gradually release students to practice independently using the practice pages.   Check for understanding and mastery after teaching each skill using the exit tickets.

When all skills have been taught, assess with the final quiz when you feel students are ready.

WHAT OTHER TEACHERS ARE SAYING…

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This is exactly what I was looking for when beginning our dividing with fractions unit! I love the examples, step-by-step notes, and activities. My students referred back to these notes to help them throughout our unit!  - Kathryn C.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Engaging activities! Great resource for dividing fractions. Thank you! Great for modeling problems, guided practice, and independent practice.  - Julie M.

Apply and extend previous understandings of division to divide unit fractions by whole numbers and whole numbers by unit fractions.
Interpret division of a unit fraction by a non-zero whole number, and compute such quotients. For example, create a story context for (1/3) ÷ 4, and use a visual fraction model to show the quotient. Use the relationship between multiplication and division to explain that (1/3) ÷ 4 = 1/12 because (1/12) × 4 = 1/3.
Interpret division of a whole number by a unit fraction, and compute such quotients. For example, create a story context for 4 ÷ (1/5), and use a visual fraction model to show the quotient. Use the relationship between multiplication and division to explain that 4 ÷ (1/5) = 20 because 20 × (1/5) = 4.
Solve real world problems involving division of unit fractions by non-zero whole numbers and division of whole numbers by unit fractions, e.g., by using visual fraction models and equations to represent the problem. For example, how much chocolate will each person get if 3 people share 1/2 lb of chocolate equally? How many 1/3-cup servings are in 2 cups of raisins?
