    PLAN & DO / WHAKAMAHI learning intentions:

    • We are PLANNING... so that we canpractise and apply working strategies to solve addition / subtraction problems of fractions with different denominators.
    • We are PLANNING... so that we canpractise and apply working strategies to solve multiplication / division problems of fractions with mixed numbers.

    Success Criteria:
    I can/have...

    • add and subtract fractions with the same denominator
    • add and subtract fractions with similar denominators
    • add and subtract fractions with different denominators
    • apply the 3 scenarios of different denominators to effectively find their LCM when adding / subtracting fractions
    • add and subtract fractions and mixed numbers
    • multiply fractions using the "cross-cancellation" method (simplifying; aka "slay the dragon")
    • divide fractions by turning it into multiplication problem
    • multiply and divide fractions that involve mixed numbers
