Fractions
10 days worth of lesson plans
Activities that go Beyond One Whole
Xxxxxxxx
Lesson Plans These lesson plans were designed to be used over 10 days. They cover fractional concepts that will go beyond one whole. They are to be used as a guide when planning instruction. Depending on your curriculum pacing guide, you may have more or less days to teach this concept.
Each day includes a warm up activity (5 minutes), whole group lesson (10-20 minutes), independent practice activity (10 minutes) and a small group activity (15 minutes). Times can be adjusted based on your schedule. You can read more about how to set up your math block on my blog. (See Getting Started with Guided Math Page).
These lesson plans are filled with hands on engagement and interactive notebook activities. Games and task cards are included and can be used all year long. You will not find lots of worksheets
A little infoThe 2nd grade TEKS, CCS, and other state standards are a little bit different. Where you teach will determine what type of fractions you cover. The Texas TEKS cover halves, fourths, and eighths. The Common Core Standards cover halves, thirds, and fourths. Each activity in this unit will include an option for the TEKS and the CCS standards. Some of these activities also include fifths and sixths just for exposure. You can pick and choose what you would like to do. The standards also require students to name the fractions in word form rather than writing them with numbers and a fraction bar. Most of the activities included in this unit will have the written form such as one-fourth. If you want to teach both the word and number form that is fine too. You can just add that into your lessons as you go.

Higher Order Thinking QuestionsThese H.O.T. tasks are to be used to guide students and get them thinking. These tasks are both challenging and fun. There are multiple types of each problem. Some include a challenge question that can be used to allow students to challenge themselves a little further. These tasks can be used during a whole group warm up, math talk time, small groups, or as exit tickets. I love to see the discussions that occur when my students walk me through their process. They show their peers new ways of thinking that help them in later tasks. They also impress me over and over again!
