Description
Make multiplying fractions visual and intuitive with this interactive Google Slides™ deck! Students use fraction models—like partitioned shapes and repeated groups—to understand what it means to find a fraction of a whole number and a whole number times a fraction.
Each card breaks the thinking into clear steps:
- Use the model to count unit fractions.
- Convert the expression into (whole number × unit fraction).
- Multiply and simplify the final answer using a fill-in-the-blank format.
Perfect for guided instruction, independent practice, math centers, or intervention!
⭐ Skills Covered:
- Multiplying a fraction by a whole number
- Using visual fraction models to build conceptual understanding
- Writing equivalent expressions using unit fractions
- Simplifying fractional products
- Interpreting “a/b of a number”
