Here is a draft text message explaining how to subtract fractions with different denominators:
Hey, to subtract fractions with different denominators you need to find a common denominator. The common denominator should be a number that is a multiple of both denominators. Then you convert both fractions to equivalent fractions using the common denominator. Finally, subtract the numerators and keep the common denominator. Let me know if this helps or if you need an example!
This document provides a review for a 2nd 9 weeks exam and covers the following topics:

The document discusses solving equations, including equations with unknowns on both sides and with brackets. It provides examples of solving various types of equations, such as equations with fractions or variables on both sides. Strategies for solving equations include collecting like terms, using the inverse operation to isolate the variable, and expanding any brackets before solving.
The document discusses operations involving fractions, including:
- Adding and subtracting similar and dissimilar fractions as well as mixed numbers by converting fractions to similar forms or improper fractions.
- Multiplying fractions by fractions, whole numbers, and mixed numbers.

This document provides instructions on how to change whole numbers to fractions, add and subtract fractions, and multiply and divide fractions. It begins by explaining how to write a whole number as a fraction by multiplying the whole number by the denominator. It then discusses reducing fractions to lower or lowest terms through dividing the numerator and denominator by common factors. The document also covers finding the least common denominator to add or subtract fractions, and how to add and subtract mixed numbers by first handling the whole numbers and then the fractions. It concludes with an overview of multiplying fractions by multiplying the numerators and denominators, and dividing fractions by keeping the first fraction as the dividend and inverting the second fraction as the divisor.
This document provides lessons on fractions and decimals for primary grade students. It includes examples and exercises on approximating decimals to the nearest hundredths or thousands, comparing and ordering fractions, multiplying and dividing fractions and decimals, and word problems involving fractions and decimals. The document is divided into multiple lessons covering key concepts and skills for primary students to master fractions and decimals.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
