1. -HW FracSq/Circ..
OBJECTIVE: #To continue building an understanding of
equivalent fractions #To explore the use of squares and other
areas as a way to build visual models of fractional parts of a
whole #To explore real-life problems that require operations
on fractions in a context that invites the use of informal
strategies rather than formal rules and algorithems
ACTIVITIES: Apply information from Fraction Squares to Fraction
Circles - make composite models from the Circle templates.
NOTES: See list of fractions HOMEWORK: None

1. -FracSq/FracCir..
OBJECTIVE: See 2-4-02 ACTIVITIES: Continue the construction of
Fraction Squares and Fraction Circles. The emphasis is on 1)
All squares and all circles are to be the same size; 2) each
part (fraction) is to be equal to the other parts; 3) they must
be accurately shaded and labelled. NOTES: HOMEWORK: Square
and circle model of 13/24

1. -13/24 models....
2. -Test............
OBJECTIVE: See 2-4-02 ACTIVITIES: Test of comparing fractions
using fraction models (can be fraction strips, fraction squares
or fraction circles. NOTES: compare: 1) 4/12&5/15
2)17/24&25/36 3) 9/16 and 17/30 Be sure to draw accurate
models and shade and label them clearly. HOMEWORK: None

1. =PartnerQuiz88...
OBJECTIVE: See 2-4-02 ACTIVITIES: Students will work on the
partner quiz with one partner. Both papers must be completed -
use words, diagrams and models. NOTES: HOMEWORK: Answer the
questions: What are decimals?

1. -HW Decimals.....
OBJECTIVE: #to extend knowledge of place value of whole
numbers to decimal numbers; #to represent fractions with
denominators of 10 and powers of 10 as decimal numbers; #to
visualize the representation of decimal numbers by using a
10x10 grid area model; #to relate fraction benchmarks to
decimal benchmarks; #to write, compare and order decimals with
place values to ten thousandths. ACTIVITIES: P39, Problme 4.1;
