Dan’s Division Strategy

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet
This Dan’s Division Strategy lesson plan also includes:

Can Dan make a conjecture about dividing fractions with the same denominators? That is what your scholars are to determine. They must show that if the statement is true, they understand how the quantities were determined, and how the operations were applied. Ask your class to come up with visual fraction models or to create a story context as suggested in the commentary. The objective is for learners to practice constructing a viable argument.
