A high-energy math center rotation based on fraction standards NF.1, NF.2, and NF.3, themed around a car racing championship. Students navigate through color-coded 'Speed Zones' to practice equivalence, number lines, and comparison.

A lesson focused on interpreting line plots and performing subtraction with fractional data points, themed around a backyard nature study.

A focused 15-minute measurement practice focusing on real-world word problems involving time, mass, volume, and distance. Students apply the four operations to solve logistics-themed measurement challenges.

A fast-paced, collaborative lesson where students use a pizza parlor theme to master comparing fractions with either the same numerator or the same denominator. Students will visualize 'slices' to understand why a larger denominator actually means smaller pieces.

A fast-paced, collaborative lesson where students compare fractions using a food truck theme. Students learn to compare fractions with either the same numerator or the same denominator using visual models and logical reasoning.

A focused lesson on interpreting line plots and performing addition with mixed numbers that have common denominators.

A focused 15-minute practice session on interpreting line plots and adding fractions with like denominators based on data points.

A quick, 10-minute non-curricular task where students compare fractions with the same denominator through a relatable pizza-sharing scenario. Students will use visual models and comparison symbols to solve the 'Pizza Thief' mystery.

A lesson focused on comparing fractions with identical numerators using visual models and open number lines to understand the relationship between denominator size and fraction value.

A lesson focused on comparing fractions with common denominators using visual models and comparison symbols. Students will learn that when denominators are the same, the fraction with the larger numerator represents the larger quantity.

A carnival-themed math review covering 3-digit regrouping, multiplication/division facts, and fraction concepts through three interactive rotations.

A 4th-grade math lesson centered on building line plots with mixed numbers (halves and fourths) using the Building Thinking Classrooms (BTC) framework. Students collaborate to organize 'carpenter's scraps' and solve a non-routine construction puzzle.

A collaborative problem-solving lesson focused on comparing fractions with the same numerator or denominator using a bakery-themed 'Doughnut Duel' challenge. Students work in teams to reason about fraction sizes and justify their mathematical thinking.

A 30-minute interactive lesson focused on visual models for fraction equivalence, specifically addressing fractions equivalent to whole numbers and comparing fractions through reasoning. Students act as 'Blueprint Builders' to construct and compare fractional parts of a whole.
