3.NR.4.1 Describe a unit fraction and explain how multiple copies of a unit fraction form a non-unit fraction. Use parts of a whole, parts of a set, points on a number line, distances on a number line and area models.
 

LT: We are learning to compare two unit fractions.


SC: I can use a variety of strategies to compare unit fractions.

I  can reason that two fractions can only be compared when they are comparing the same whole.


Lesson/Activity: Module 5 Lesson  

Students explore partitioning a whole into equal parts with equal-sharing situations.  They equally share multiple objects, and then they equally share 1 object among multiple people and use a fractional unit to name the size of each shape.  (Vocabulary:  fractional unit, halves, thirds, fourths & sixths).


Standard(s):  S3P1. Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information about the ways heat energy is transferred and measured. b. Plan and carry out an investigation to gather data using thermometers to produce tables and charts that illustrate the effect of sunlight on various objects. (Clarification statement: The use of both Fahrenheit and Celsius temperature scales is expected.) c. Use tools and every day materials to design and construct a device/structure that will increase/decrease the warming effects of sunlight on various materials.  (Clarification statement: Conduction, convection, and radiation are taught in upper grades.)


LT: We are learning to use thermometers to measure the effect of sunlight on objects.


SC:I can explore and explain how to use a thermometer using both Fahrenheit and Celsius. 

I can use a thermometer to collect data on the effect of the sunlight on different objects. 

I can use my data to create a chart (or table) to show the effect of sunlight on different objects.

Lesson/Activity: Module 5 Lesson 2 

Students concretely partition a variety of wholes into equal parts.  They name fractional units and describe the relationship between the whole and the fractional unit.  They recognize that as a whole is partitioned into more equal parts, the size of the parts gets smaller.  (Vocabulary:  fifths, sevenths, eighths, ninths & tenths).

Lesson/Activity: Module 5 Lesson 3 

Students use relationships between fractional units to create paper fraction strips.  They estimate and fold to make equal parrots, and they describe the relationships between the fractional units and the whole.


Standard(s):  S3P1. Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information about the ways heat energy is transferred and measured. b. Plan and carry out an investigation to gather data using thermometers to produce tables and charts that illustrate the effect of sunlight on various objects.

I can reason that two fractions can only be compared when they are comparing the same whole.


Lesson/Activity: Module 5 Lesson 4 

Students identify the fractional unit and the shaded fraction in equally partitioned wholes in pictorial fraction models. They partition pictorial wholes and shade and label fractions.  (Vocabulary:  unit fraction).
