Connecting Understanding of Multi-Digit Whole Number Operations to Fractions Unit Planning Team: Kim Meyer (ET), Trisha Grayson (OW), Kasey Benson (OW), Haylee Pierce (JM), Susan Harp (JD) 4 th Grade Unit 2

Essential Questions How can I use what I know about addition, subtraction, and multiplication with whole numbers to help me add, subtract, and multiply fractions? How can I use what I know about place value, multiplication, and properties of operations to divide whole numbers? How can I use what I know about addition, subtraction, and multiplication with whole numbers to help me add, subtract, and multiply fractions? How can I use what I know about place value, multiplication, and properties of operations to divide whole numbers?

Identify and CLARIFY the STANDARDS 4.NBT.6 deals with division of whole numbers (with and without remainders), strategies including place value, properties of operations, and connections to multiplication (students need experience with equations, area, and arrays as they can model division 4NF.1 and 4.NF.2 Remember to build equivalency understanding from fractions on a number line work from 3 rd grade. In 3 rd, they used like denominators. 4 th grade calls for unlike denominators and using benchmark fractions.

Identify and CLARIFY the STANDARDS 4.MD.4 refers to creating and solving problems involving line plots. Line plots were previously taught in grades 2 and 3, but in 4 th students are expected to use fractions.

Our Thought Process as We Paced the Quarter: You will see that our group clustered many standards together each week and here’s why… For example: 4.NF.1/ 4.NF.3/ 4.NF.4 During discussions of fractions you will be pulling out ideas of equivalency, addition and multiplication in student strategies. For example ¼ + ¼ = 2 x ¼ = ½ DIVIDE the unit into weeks and DISTRIBUTE the standards
