Find the greatest common factor, in order to reduce fractions, and find least common multiple, in order to change fractions to a common denominator. Students will work in teams. Write the numbers 1-100 on paper strips. Put them into a container. First team draws two strips and finds the common factors and the GCF of the two numbers then replaces strips.
Second team takes a turn.
Given a fraction be able to draw and illustrate with a picture to represent the fraction. Write a mixed number representing the shaded parts of regions. Recognize and use different forms of common fractions, including equivalent fractions, mixed number and improper fractions. Read decimals to three places. Students will take a survey of sixth-grade students with a musical preference and turn that into a fractional ratio.
