8.1 Naming Parts with Fractions
  • Our goal is to use fractions to name parts of a
    whole.

If a whole pizza is eight pieces, what fraction
of the pizza has been eaten?
What fraction of the pizza remains?
Why do we use fractions?

Reviewing Fraction Concepts
  • Except for halves, fraction words such as third,
    fourth, sixth, and eighth suggest the number of
    equal parts.
  • What are the fraction words for five equal parts?
  • What are the fraction words for ten equal parts?
  • What do the denominators (under the fraction bar)
    tell us?
  • What do the numerators (above the fraction bar)
    tell us?
  • What does the fraction ¾ tell represent?
  • What does the fraction 0/4 represent?
  • What does the fraction 8/8 represent?

8.4 Equivalent Fractions
  • Our goal is to find equivalent fractions.

What is an equivalent fraction?
35
Mental Math
Identify the clue word for each problem, and be
ready to explain how you solve the problem.
  • There are 36 children in the class. They sit in
    rows of 4. How many rows of 4 are there?
  • 7 friends share 45 souvenir pins from a field
    trip. How many pins does each friend get?
  • A table of 8 children must share 1 box of 64
    crayons. How many crayons would each child get if
    they share equally?
  • Eight children share 72 pennies. How many per
    child?
  • 5 children share 55 strawberries equally. How
    many does each child receive?

36
Math Message
  • Take an envelope. Cut apart the Fraction Cards
    on activity sheets at the back of the journal.
    Put them in your envelope.

37
Using Fraction Cards
  • Each fraction card represents ONE.
  • They are all the same size.
  • The number of strips and shading is different
    and the shaded fractional part is named on the
    back.
  • Find cards with matching fractional parts. These
    different fractions, which show the same amount
    of the whole, are called
  • Equivalent Fractions

  • Take out your fraction cards. Turn them so the
    picture sides (sides with the shaded parts) are
    face up. Find all the fractions that have 1 in
    the numerator. Put them in order, from the card
    with the smallest part shaded, to the card with
    the largest part shaded.

    using fractions and mixed numbers.

What is a mixed number?
55
  • Twenty-seven hundredths or sixty-seven hundredths
  • Five tenths or five hundredths
  • Three and six tenths or three and sixteen
    hundredths
  • Seventy-two hundredths or nine tenths

Emily had three apples. She cut one in half and
ate one of the halves. How many apples were left?
Then she cut each of the other whole apples in
half. She gave all of the half-apples to her
friends. How many half-apples did she give away?
57
Naming Fractional Parts More Than One
  • Take out two of the circles and fold them each
    in half. Label each half, ½. Then cut them out.
  • How would you write a fraction that names three
    halves?
  • How is that different than the apple fractions
    we have used?

58
Mixed Numbers
  • When you show a quantity or amount using both
    a whole number and a fraction, you have used a
    mixed number.

List some examples of mixed numbers
When are some times when we use mixed
numbers?
