Adding and
subtracting fractions
Objective: I should be able to add and subtract
fractions. (L5-6/Grades E-D)
Keywords: numerator, denominator, simplify, equivalent
By the end of the lesson:
Must learn: to add and subtract fractions with a
common denominator. (5c/E-)
Should learn: to add and subtract fractions with
different denominators. (one change) (5a/E+)
Could learn: to add and subtract fractions with
different denominators.(two change) (6c/D-)
Real life link: You might need to add or subtract
distances involving fractions.
