Practice your Counting Goal for 5-10 minutes first – to warm up the brain!
Warm Up Activity – Dice/Card War (for extra fun, play against a family member)
Flip over 2 cards at the same time, eg: Player One flips a “7” and Player Two flips a “2” so 7 x 2 = 14. The first player to say the answer, eg: “14” keeps both cards in a separate pile. The game is over when all cards have been flipped (from both players starting piles). The winner is the player who answered more questions correctly (they should have a larger pile of ‘won’ cards).
Learning Intention – We are learning to multiply fractions by multiplying the numerators (top numbers) together and the denominators (bottom numbers) together, using a visual model of a grid to improve our understanding
Success Criteria – I can multiply fractions using a visual model, by multiplying both numerators and both denominators in a grid shape
PLEASE WATCH BOTH VIDEOS BEFORE CONTINUING!! (One might be easier to understand than the other…)
Multiply fractions using a visual model
Today we are multiplying fractions using a visual model, so you can start to see what is actually happening. You will need some coloured pencils.
The answers have also been provided so you can check your work. Your teacher should be able to follow your ‘working out’ and see how you arrived at the correct answer. Please complete the activity below.
multiplying fractions visual practice task
Now you might be more confident having a go at the above explained visual method of multiplying fractions, without having them already coloured in for you. On the activity below, you will need to draw the grid and colour it in yourself – this will give you a good indication of how much you understand the topic.
