Module 3: Addition and Subtraction of Fractions

  • Topic A: Equivalent Fractions

    Lesson 1 Objective:  Make equivalent fractions with the number line, the area model, and numbers.
    Lesson 2 Objective:  Make equivalent fractions with sums of fractions with like denominators.

    Khan Academy Topic A: Equivalent fractions

    Topic B: Making Like Units Pictorially

    Lesson 3  Objective:  Add fractions with unlike units using the strategy of creating equivalent fractions.
    Lesson 4  Objective: Add fractions with sums between 1 and 2.
    Lesson 5  Objective: Subtract fractions with unlike units using the strategy of creating equivalent fractions.
