This short video and interactive assessment activity is designed to teach fifth graders about adding and subtracting mixed numbers - word problems.

This short video and interactive assessment activity is designed to teach fourth graders about adding and subtracting fractions - word problems.

This short video and interactive assessment activity is designed to teach fifth graders about adding and subtracting fractions with different denominators.

The math learning center is an app and online platform that allows students to use manipulatives virtually. In this activity, students will use virtual manipulatives to add fractions.

VIDEO 3 OF 3 - This video addresses NC standard 5.NF.1. It explains how to connect the use of models for addition/subtraction of fractions to the standard algorithm for adding/subtracting fractions.

VIDEO 2 OF 3 - This video addresses NC standard 5.NF.1. It explains strategies for making estimates when adding and subtracting fractions with unlike denominators. Strategies for making estimates before and after problems solving are provided.

VIDEO 1 OF 3 - This video addresses NC standard 5.NF.1. It explains WHY we create equivalent fractions when adding unlike denominators, and HOW to create equivalent fractions when adding unlike denominators.

This brief video shows students how to enter a fraction into the TI-15 calculator and to add fractions. Students should access to a TI-15 calculator while viewing, This video may be embedded within Google Classroom.

This short video and interactive assessment activity is designed to teach fifth graders about adding fractions with different denominators.

Students reason about the meaning of adding fractions with unlike denominators in the context of an example problem. The mathematics task is intended to be a problem or question that encourages the use of mathematical practices. The dialogue is meant to show how students might engage in the mathematical practices as they work on the task.

This workbook was created through the efforts of three instructors at Scottsdale Community College in Scottsdale, Arizona. Any individual may download and utilize a digital copy of this workbook for free.

This is a short skill check on adding and subtracting fractions and mixed numbers. Students will solve world problems and are encouraged to solve using pictures, models, or the standard algorithm. I tried to include a few problems that require regrouping which can be a struggle for many fifth graders.
