Week Of: April 20-24

Choose at least 3 of the following 9 activities to complete this week.

**At the end of the menu, you will find information for helping you work with your student on activities marked as new

content. This material has not been previously taught in the classroom.

Fraction Book Use two pieces of paper fold them in half to make a booklet about fractions. Decorate the cover with pictures of fractions. For each page draw or cut pictures to show the fractions listed below. Page 1: one-half Page 2: three-fourths Page 3: two-eighths

Make A List

Make a list of where you see, hear or use fractions this week. Talk with an adult to help you. Take pictures if you can.

Same or Different

Look at the two fractions below. How are they alike? How are they different? Write your answers or share them on Dojo or Seesaw.

Grab Bag Make 2 sets of number cards on index cards or pieces of paper with the numbers 1-9. Place them in a bag or bowl. For each player, write the numbers 2-18 down the side of a piece of paper. Take turns pulling two number cards and add them together to find the sum. Place the cards back in the bag each time. Write the addition fact next to the number written on the paper. When you have 3 facts next to 1 number, you are the winner.

How Many Ways to make 12?

This information is for parents and guardians to support students in NEW learning for the week.

Fractions TEKS 2.3A(S) Partition objects into equal parts and name the parts including halves, fourths, and eighths, using words 2.3B(R) Explain that the more the fractional parts using to make a whole, the smaller the part and the fewer

the fractional parts, the larger the part 2.3C(S) Use concrete models to count fractional parts beyond one whole using words and recognize how many

parts it takes to equal a whole

2.3D(S) Identify examples and non-examples of halves, fourths, and eighths

Prior Knowledge

Students started building a conceptual understanding of fractions in first grade. First graders partitioned 2D shapes into two and four fair shares, described fractional parts using words and identified examples and non-examples of halves and fourths.

TEKS TALK This is students first experience with the term fraction Students in 2nd grade work with whole or area models (not sets) All fraction TEKS should be embedded. They should not be taught in

isolation. Each lesson, through questioning, can cover all the TEKS. Students in 2nd grade have 6 skills they have to master regarding

fractions. Students need to: o Partition objects into equal parts o Name parts with words: halves, fourths and eighths

Students do not have to learn fraction notation (Example: ) Students are not expected to know the term numerator and denominator

o Explain: more parts = smaller the part, less parts = larger the part

o Count fractional parts (beyond a whole) o Recognize how many parts are in 1 whole o Find examples/non-examples of halves, fourths and eighths

2nd grade is the foundation for student’s fraction understanding. Lessons should be based on hands-

on fraction activities.

Instructional Talk video

Creating a Fraction Kit

Use 4 different colors of construction paper. Cut each piece of construction paper into 4 strips. Each child will need one strip of each color. As the students fold the paper have them predict

how many pieces they will have when they open and cut.

1. Have students label the purple strip as “one whole”.

2. Have the students fold the orange strip in half, crease it hard so that it makes a definite

line, and then cut on the line (it should make two pieces.) Have them label each “one

half”.

3. Have students fold the red strip in half, and then fold it in half again. Have them cut each

crease and label each piece as “one fourth”.

4. Have students fold the blue strip in half, then fold it in half again, and fold it in half a third

time. Label each piece “one eighth” .

See example picture below:

LABEL using words not fraction notation.
