Description
Lesson Card 13 shows the pattern of equivalent fractions and allows students to contribute more examples. Use LC 13 by itself, or with LC 14 Fractions: the Brick Wall. Most lessons will be under 30 minutes, but you can use this Lesson Card endlessly to create more lessons.
Search for these videos on YouTube.com and see how to use this Lesson Card:

MATH LESSON IDEAS: Draw diagrams to show a fraction and cut the pieces or shade the pieces to show an equivalent fraction with different numerator and denominator. Play games with fractions, decimals, and percents using greater than /less than/ equal to. Use as a reference for cross-multiplication. Estimate a decimal or percent to the nearest fraction. Say a decimal number out loud to find the numerator and denominator, then write it as a fraction. Warm up for finding common denominators, expanding/reducing fractions, and converting fractions to decimals. Use as a reference when graphing linear equations. Example: Three points on a line are (1, 3) and (3, 9) and (10, 30). Find more points as ordered pairs (x, y) for this line.
ENGLISH: Text in left column helps students read and spell the names of fractions. This practice is especially good for English learners. Pronounce the plural denominators carefully (fifths, twelfths). Nortice that some are irregular (two halves, three thirds).
CAREER TECH: The text at bottom explains aliquot parts for medical and health care workers.
