Extend understanding of fraction equivalence and ordering.
4.NF.1
Explain why a fraction a/b is equivalent to a fraction (n x a) / (n x b) by using visual fraction models, with attention to how the number and size of the parts differ even though the two fractions themselves are the same size. Use this principle to recognize and generate equivalent fractions.
Measureable Objective/Sub-objective(s) to be addressed –
How will it be communicated age appropriately?
Document the SMART goal (Specific, Measureable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-based)
Objective: Use the area model and multiplication to show the equivalence of two fractions.
SMART goal: Students will complete a problem set by using the area model and multiplication to show the equivalence of two fractions.
The objective will be

What will the students be saying and doing? (Explicit details must be articulated.)
During this time, the teacher will be going over the problem set with the class. The teacher will model one problem from each section of the problem set. The teacher will then work with small groups and allow other students to complete the problem set with a partner. The teacher will also walk around the classroom periodically to monitor student work.
During this time, students will be working with a partner to collaborate and complete the problem set together. Students will discuss with their partner how to solve a problem before doing so. Students must show their work and answers on their problem set. Some students who need extra support will be working in small groups with teachers. These students will be trying problems on their own and will be receiving feedback from the teacher.
At the end of the lesson:
