2. 5TH GRADE MATHEMATICS –
DIVIDING FRACTIONS
Content Standard
• 5.NF.B Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication and division to
multiply and divide fractions.

3. 5TH GRADE MATHEMATICS –
DIVIDING FRACTIONS
• In this 5th grade mathematics lesson, students will be exposed for the first time to
the process of dividing fractions. First students will be given a problem to try
independently on their whiteboards. After the opening activity, the teacher will give
a 20 minute instructional lesson about the process that is used to multiple fractions
using key vocabulary to explain the process. Next, students will be engage in a class
learning activity using white boards and dry erase markers. Finally, students will
work independently on practice problems after completing a series of problems in
class with 80% accuracy. Students will complete workbook page 65 for homework.

4. DIVIDING FRACTIONS – LESSON

1) Numerator
2) Denominator
3) Factor
4) Least Common Multiple
5) Common Multiple
6) Cross Cancellation
7) Cross Multiply
8) Reciprocal
9) Multiply
10) Simplest Form

5. REVIEWING LESSON VOCABULARY
• Math Notes
• Students receive a note template at the beginning of class. As
vocabulary is introduced, students record the vocab word and
definition.
• Pop Quiz
• Randomly choose a time throughout the lesson to give students a pop
quiz regarding the vocabulary. Students who answer all questions
correctly receive a small piece of candy.
• Math Jeopardy
• In an online jeopardy format, include a blend of mathematical
problems and mathematical vocabulary terms for students to answer
in a fun filled, review competition.

6. FORMATIVE ASSESSMENT
1) The actual operation used to find the answer to a division
problem when dividing fractions
2) The bottom number of a fraction
3) When a fraction cannot become any smaller
4) Means that when multiplying fractions you can reduce the
numerator of one fraction with the denominator of another
5) A number into which each number in a given set may be evenly
divided
6) To clear an equation of fractions when each side consists of a
fraction with a single denominator by multiplying the numerator
of each side by the denominator of the other side and equating
the two products obtained
7) A number that when multiplied by a given number gives one as a
product
8) The top number of a fraction
9) A number or quantity that when multiplied with another produces
a given number or expression
