4th Grade:Week Three - Lesson Plans

Week Three

This week students will add and subtract fractions and mixed numbers

  • Students work with area models and number line models to add and subtract fractions and mixed numbers. Students use a number line to represent addition and subtraction of fractions as jumps to the right or left. They relate this to addition and subtraction of whole numbers. Students solve rich problems involving addition and subtraction of fractions.
