Description
This Notebook file contains a brief fraction review including equivalent fractions, mixed numbers, and multiplying fractions.
It is followed by two open ended math problems. They are meant to be solved with partners or in small groups. There is more than one way to approach and solve each problem. These problems will require your students to engage in a productive struggle which is why they are suitable for small groups.
The first problem is a fraction problem involving a recipe. The second problem involves money and capacity measurement.
Both are examples of real life problem solving.

CCSS4.NF.B.4b
Understand a multiple of 𝘢/𝘣 as a multiple of 1/𝘣, and use this understanding to multiply a fraction by a whole number. For example, use a visual fraction model to express 3 × (2/5) as 6 × (1/5), recognizing this product as 6/5. (In general, 𝘯 × (𝘢/𝘣) = (𝘯 × 𝘢)/𝘣.)
CCSS5.NF.A.2
Solve word problems involving addition and subtraction of fractions referring to the same whole, including cases of unlike denominators, e.g., by using visual fraction models or equations to represent the problem. Use benchmark fractions and number sense of fractions to estimate mentally and assess the reasonableness of answers. For example, recognize an incorrect result 2/5 + 1/2 = 3/7, by observing that 3/7 < 1/2.
CCSS5.NF.B.4b
Find the area of a rectangle with fractional side lengths by tiling it with unit squares of the appropriate unit fraction side lengths, and show that the area is the same as would be found by multiplying the side lengths. Multiply fractional side lengths to find areas of rectangles, and represent fraction products as rectangular areas.
