They first divide a circle into 20 parts, which is a good review for using a protractor and label each point with a letter A through T. Four of the points have been included on the circle as a guide. Please note that students tend to draw "wedges" when dividing the circle into parts. This is not necessary but may be helpful for students to s

Which of These Problems is NOT Like the Others?
This is a quick review of fraction rules, and was made to be projected on a SmartBoard; however, it can also be printed out. I project it and then have student pairs use their whiteboards to come up with their solutions and explanation. The goal is for the students to be able to look at the problems and realize that one of the fractions being multiplied is an improper fraction, which will result in a product smaller than the proper fraction by which it's being multiplied.
