Description
Fraction notes for subtracting mixed numbers with regrouping are interactive and engaging with this math wheel note-taking format!
What is a math doodle wheel? A math wheel is a type of graphic organizer where students can:
- Take notes inside the math wheel
- Use color, drawing, and doodling to help create memory triggers
- Complete practice problems in the pattern around the wheel, and
- Color the background pattern
Students can keep these graphic organizers in their interactive notebooks all year as a resource/study tool.
- The wheels are excellent for reviewing concepts as part of your test prep.
- You can even enlarge the math wheels and use them as posters or anchor charts!
Sections of the Subtracting Mixed Numbers wheel include:
1) Find common denominators
2) Borrow/Regroup (there’s a wheel that uses Borrow and one that uses Regroup) OR Convert to improper fractions
3) Subtract numerators (keep denominators the same) and whole numbers
4) Simplify
This subtracting mixed numbers resource includes:
1) TWO versions of student math wheel, each with three wheel options
- Versions: 1st wheel uses ‘borrow’; 2nd wheel uses ‘regroup’
Three notes options for each
- ‘Open’ for students to fill in everything – notes and examples
- Fill-in: this version has a few numbers included, as well as the fraction bars, to help guide students’ use of space. There are a few notes, which are fill-in-the-blanks.
- Pre-filled: this has all the notes filled in and all the example info filled in. Answers to practice problems are NOT on the page.
Each version comes with a patterned background and with no pattern in the background.
2) Teacher key/wheel with completed notes and examples
3) Colored sample of wheel
4) PowerPoint file with two editable templates, so you can add text to make your own math wheels, if you’d like (for classroom use only - not commercial use).
Features of this easy-to-use fractions resource:
1) Notes and examples in each section. The wheels use one example problem.
- Step 2 addresses the problem in two sections: One section shows how to solve by regrouping, and the other by converting to improper fractions.
2) Guided or independent practice:
- There are 8 problems in the pattern around the circle, for students to practice subtracting mixed numbers. All of these problems require regrouping or converting to improper fractions.
3) Coloring/doodling opportunity: students can color the background pattern, as well as the headings and doodle arrows.
Coloring the background, if you use the patterned versions:
- Students don’t HAVE to color at all during instructional time….coloring the background could be an ‘early finisher’ activity, homework, etc.
- Students don’t need to color every section of the background – part of their coloring pattern could be to leave sections white.
- Students could color sections with patterns instead of solids – maybe polka dots in one section and squiggly lines in another.
- This coloring part is just a chance to be creative and enjoy the stress-relief coloring can provide:-)
