Arizona Math Standard: 5.NF.B.5.b

Explaining why multiplying a given number by a fraction greater than 1 results in a product greater than the given number; explaining why multiplying a given number by a fraction less than 1 results in a product smaller than the given number; and relating the principle of fraction equivalence a/b = n × a/n × b to the effect of multiplying a/b by 1.

Find The Pattern: Multiply Fractions

What if you set the stage for students to discover how to multiply fractions?

Gr 3, 4, 5, 7

How Many Ways: Multiply Fractions Equal 1/4

One equation. Digits one through nine. How many ways can you make it work?

Gr 3, 4, 5, 7

Fractions: Decompose and Recompose

What if we took a fraction apart, then took those pieces apart, then recombined them, and then recombined those, arriving back to the original fraction?

Gr 1-4

Numerator or Denominator: Which has more power in a fraction?

What do you do with students who already get their fraction operations? Give them a contrived project about recipes or pizza slices? Make them solve annoyingly hard practice problems? Please. Here, we get students thinking in a whole new way, pondering which has more power, the numerator or denominator.

Gr 2-6

How Many Ways: Fraction Equivalence

How many different ways can you make this math statement true using only the digits one through nine?

Gr 1, 2, 3, 4, 6

Fraction Ordering Tournament

Which set of fractions would be the trickiest to order from least to greatest? Let’s have a tournament!

Gr 2-8

Writing A Story About Fraction Equivalence

When fractions take on a new denominator, it’s as if they’re wearing a disguise – same value, new look. So let’s write a story about fraction equivalence starring a fraction who needs to fit in with a new group.

Gr 1-5

A Nutrition-Based Math Project

Let’s create a parody ad attacking a surprisingly calorie-rich meal.

Gr 3, 4, 6, 7, 8

Math Curiosity: Collatz Conjecture

The Collatz Conjecture: start with any number and get to 1 using just two rules. It seems to always work…

Gr 1-6

Math Project: What If I Bought Apple Stock Instead?

What if you had an original iPod and sold it compared to if you had bought the equivalent amount of Apple stock and sold that?
