Description

This multiply and divide fractions activity is a Whodunnit math mystery where students solve fraction problems to uncover clues. Perfect for math review, practice, or reinforcing fraction operations in an engaging format.

Nothing like a good criminal investigation to liven up multiplying and dividing two fractions!

Based on my popular CSI projects, I have created Whodunnits? The Whodunnits plan to focus on single content topics as opposed to units and will focus more on skill building than application. Every day can't be a project day, so Whodunnits can be an engaging out-of-the-seat activity to practice important skills.

In a Whodunnit, students will work in teams to solve 10 practice problems that increase in difficulty. After each answer, they will receive a clue. Similar to the popular board game Clue, there will be a fictional "injury", the goal will be to determine the "criminal", the scene of the crime, and the method. Scenes will be placed around the room, and the students will have at it.

In this 10-page document, you will be given an outline for how to implement the project, a student worksheet, and 10 "Clues" to be printed and plastered to the wall.

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
Interpret and compute quotients of fractions, and solve word problems involving division of fractions by fractions, e.g., by using visual fraction models and equations to represent the problem. For example, create a story context for (2/3) ÷ (3/4) and use a visual fraction model to show the quotient; use the relationship between multiplication and division to explain that (2/3) ÷ (3/4) = 8/9 because 3/4 of 8/9 is 2/3. (In general, (𝘢/𝘣) ÷ (𝘤/𝘥) = 𝘢𝘥/𝘣𝘤.) How much chocolate will each person get if 3 people share 1/2 lb of chocolate equally? How many 3/4-cup servings are in 2/3 of a cup of yogurt? How wide is a rectangular strip of land with length 3/4 mi and area 1/2 square mi?
