2. I will be teaching the class how to
compare fractions and recognize
fractions as equivalent. They will
learn if two fractions are equivalent as
well as generate equivalent fractions
on their own. I will be able to assess
their understanding by using a
fractions game.

3. Today’s math class is all about fun with
fractions! First, take these worksheets
and color the different slices of
pizza, then cut them out. Next I’m going
to write some fractions on the
board, and you can make those
fractions with your pizza slices laid out
on your desk. I will be coming around
to check your work and to help. You
may quietly work with a neighbor to
complete this assignment.

4. I will have the students make fractions with
the pizza slices that they have colored and
cut out. Next, I will have a few fractions
written on the board, and they can configure
the fraction with their own pizzas. There will
be pizzas that were cut into
fourths, eighths, and sixteenths. They will
get into groups of three, each student having
the different type of pizza. Once they put
the fractions together with their pizzas, they
will be able to visually understand how
different fractions are equivalent to
eachother.

5. Once the students have a general
knowledge of the standards, and the
concept of fraction equivalency, they will
individually play a computer game that will
help me assess their understanding. The
game displays four different fractions at a
time, and the player must click on the
fraction that is not equivalent to the others.
They will be playing on the beginning
mode, and they may use a scratch paper if
needed. They will play ten rounds of this
game. For every question they get
right, the game will reward them with a
virtual slice of pie on the side of the
screen, and also displays the number
correct on the top right corner. . I will come
around the room and check how many they
got right to assess they’re understanding.
