Use the problems provided to check for readiness. TAP STudEnTS PRioR KnoWlEdgE Briefly review with students the concept of using models to represent decimals greater than 1. Remind students that the decimal point is read as and. using Models to Represent decimals Draw two 10 3 10 grids horizontally aligned on the board. Completely shade the grid on the left. Shade 25 squares, 2 of the left-most columns and the bottom five squares of the 3rd column from the left of the grid on the right, to illustrate the decimal 1.25. Have students read the decimal illustrated by the grids. Review the procedure. Tell them to name the number of whole grids, and then name the decimal part of the partially shaded grid. Display blank decimal grids. Name a decimal and have volunteers instruct you on how to illustrate the decimal on the grid. Read decimals Write 2.5 on the board and have a volunteer read the decimal. [two and five tenths] Provide additional examples, gradually increasing the complexity of the decimal by including hundreds and thousandths and a greater whole number part. Include some nondecimals so students can hear the difference between a decimal and a nondecimal. 25

Introduction AT A glance Read and discuss the introduction on page 25 with the class to help students understand the concept of modeling fractions greater than one. Lesson 5 Fractions Greater Than 1 TEKS.2.B Model fraction quantities greater than one using [concrete objects and] pictorial models. instructional SuPPoRT Use the following to explain the introduction in greater depth. Writing Mixed numbers and improper Fractions On the board, draw the diagram that represents 1 1. Explain that a mixed number consists of a 2 whole number and a fraction. Identify the part of the model that represents the whole number and the part that represents the fractional part. Emphasize the use of the word and to separate the whole-number part from the fractional part. Ask students how they would change the diagram to model 2 1. [Add another circle with both halves 2 shaded.] Introduction This lesson will show you how to write fractions greater than 1. Fractions are used to show part of a whole. They can also show numbers that are larger than one whole. When a fraction is written as an improper fraction, its numerator is greater than or equal to its denominator. A mixed number has a whole-number part and a fraction part. An example of a mixed number is 1 1 2. improper fraction: 3 2 mixed number: 1 1 2 Like decimals, you say the word and between the whole-number and the fraction part of a mixed number. So 1 1 is read one and one-half. 2 Write a fraction that shows the shaded part of the model: Write the denominator. Each whole is divided into 3 equal parts. The denominator is 3. Write the numerator. Count the total number of shaded parts. There are 7 shaded parts. Write the fraction. number of shaded parts in model number of equal parts in each whole 5 7 3 The fraction that represents the shaded model is 7 3. 25 Give students 2 paper circles. Have them fold each paper circle in half. Ask students to unfold the circles and to color one whole circle and one-half of the other circle. Point out that they have colored 2 of one circle and of the other. Ask 2 1 2 students how many halves they have colored in all. 3 3 2 using a Model to Write improper Fractions Emphasize that the denominator in an improper fraction is the number of parts each whole is divided into, not the total number of parts. The numerator is the total number of shaded parts. It will always be a number that is the same as or larger than the denominator. Real-World Connection Ask students to think of recent situations where they have used mixed numbers in their conversations. Have them give examples. Examples: describing amounts of food eaten; Students may say that they ate 1 sandwiches for 1 2 lunch or had 2 apples as a snack. 1 2 26

Modeled Modeled EXAMPLE 1 What improper fraction represents the shaded part of the model? EXAMPLE 2 look at the model below. What mixed number represents the shaded part of the model? Follow these steps to solve the problem. Step 1 Step 2 Try It! Write the denominator. Each whole is divided into 6 equal parts. So the denominator is 6. Write the numerator. Count the total number of shaded parts. There are 28 shaded sixths in the entire model. Step 3 Write the improper fraction. numerator denominator 5 number of shaded parts in model number of equal parts in each whole 5 6 28 SOLUTION: The improper fraction that represents the shaded model is 28 6. Use what you know to solve this problem. 1 What improper fraction represents the shaded part of 13 the model? 5 Follow these steps to solve the problem. Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Try It! Write the whole-number part of the mixed number. There are 6 triangles completely shaded. This represents 6 wholes. The whole-number part is 6. Write the fraction part. Each triangle in the model is divided into equal parts. In the last triangle, 1 of the parts are shaded. So, the fraction is 1. Write the mixed number. A mixed number has a part that is a whole number and a part that is a fraction. The model shows 6 wholes and of another triangle. 1 SOLUTION: The mixed number that represents the shaded model is 6 1. Use what you know to solve this problem. 1 What mixed number represents the shaded part of the model? 3 3 26 27 AT A glance Read and discuss each Example problem on pages 26 and 27 with the class. Model the steps used to solve each example. Then have students solve the Try it! problems that follow the example. STEP By STEP Walk the class through each Example problem. Read aloud each question and discuss how to solve the problem. To ensure understanding, demonstrate each step beneath the problem. The steps model the thinking designed to lead students to a correct solution. After discussing each example, direct students to solve the related Try it! problems. Read each question with students. Then have students, individually or in pairs, answer the problem and write the solution. After students have completed the problems, discuss their solutions as a class. 3 Page 26: 1 5 13. Page 27: 1 3 3. TEAChER TiPS Use the following to discuss the example problems in more detail. improper Fractions (Example 1, page 26) Point out that the improper fraction is read twentyeight sixths, that is, twenty-eight divided by six. Remind students that the denominator is the number of equal parts in each whole while the numerator is the total number of shaded parts. Mixed numbers (Example 2, page 27) An alternate method of describing the model is 1 1 1 1 1 1. 1 Because equals 1, this can be rewritten as 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 or 6 1. 1 1 27

Guided AT A glance Guide students through the multiple-choice problem on page 28. STEP By STEP First, have students read the problem and the Think About it. Then have them solve the problem independently. Tell students to validate their answer choice by reading the detailed explanation of the correct answer [B] that follows the four choices. Then discuss the explanation with the class to help guide students thinking. This section concludes with an investigation into the reasons why three of the four answer choices are not correct. Discuss these analyses with students to help them understand precisely why one answer choice is feasible and the three other choices cannot be justified or supported. TEAChER TiPS Use these tips to discuss the explanation of the correct answer. Finding improper Fractions Review the properties of improper fractions. The numerator will always be the same as or larger than the denominator. The denominator is the number of parts each model is divided into. Working Backwards Guided Think about it This problem asks you to find the improper fraction that represents the shaded area of the model. Which answer choices are written as improper fractions? Read the Think About It to understand the problem. Then solve the problem. Circle the correct answer. The shaded area represents the amount of the pies eaten at a picnic. Which fraction shows the amount of pie eaten? A 8 B 31 8 C 1 8 d 31 EXPLANATION: The denominator is 8 because each pie has 8 equal parts. There are 31 shaded parts, or 31 pieces of pie eaten. The numerator is 31. Write the numerator over the denominator. The fraction is 8 31. CORRECT ANSWER: Answer choice B is correct. INCORRECT ANSWERS: Read why the other answer choices are not correct. A The numerator of does not show the shaded parts. 8 C is not correct because it represents the amount of pie that 1 8 is left, not the amount that was eaten. d The denominator of 31 is not the 8 equal parts in each whole. 28 Students can consider each answer choice in succession. For example, students would determine that 31 has the correct numerator, but the denominator shows the number of pies, not the number of parts in each pie. 28

Guided AT A glance Have each student complete short-answer problems 1 3 on page 29. STEP By STEP Before students complete short-answer problems 1 3, tell students that the hints provide clues for solving the problems. Make sure students understand that they must write a solution and an explanation for each problem. Have pairs of students share and discuss solutions and explanations. Follow up the Pair/Share activity with a whole-class discussion of their work. SoluTionS And SAMPlE ExPlAnATionS FoR discussion 1 Solution: 1 6 Explanation: I counted the number of whole figures,. Then I added the number of shaded parts out of the 6 equal sections in the partially shaded hexagon. 2 Solution: 27 10 Explanation: Each circle is divided into tenths. This is the denominator. The total number of shaded sections, 27, is the numerator. 3 Solution: 1 9 Explanation: The numerator is the number of shaded parts in the model, 1. The denominator is the number of equal parts in each whole, 9. Hints Guided A mixed number has a whole number part and a fraction part. In a mixed number, the denominator stands for the number of equal sections in each whole. When the model shows more than one whole but the question asks for a fraction, it means the answer will be an improper fraction. Solve each problem. Use the Hints to help you. Then explain how you found your solution. 1 What mixed number represents the shaded part of the model? 1 Solution: 6 Explanation: Responses will vary. 2 The model below is 2 7 10 shaded. What improper fraction matches the shaded model? 27 Solution: 10 Explanation: Responses will vary. 3 What fraction represents the shaded part of the model? 1 Solution: 9 Explanation: Responses will vary. PAIR SHARE With your partner, share and discuss each of your solutions and explanations. 29 Mini-lesson This mini-lesson will show students how to use number lines to write a mixed number. 1. On the board, draw a number line that is divided into 9 equal sections. Place the following fractions in sequential order at each tick mark:,,,,, 0 1 2 3 1, 1, 1, 1 1 2 3 Below 0 write 0, below write 1, and below 1 write 2. using a number line to Write Mixed numbers 2. Have students guide you in labeling the number line to show fourths from 0 to 2. 3. Point out the whole numbers written below the fractions.. To help students get a sense of the size of mixed numbers, ask, Is 1 1 between 0 and 1? [no] 5. Draw a point on the number line. Have students write the mixed number that names the point on the number line. 29

F 3 G 3 1 } 3 H 3 2 } 3 J Answer Form 1 A B C D 2 F G H J 3 A B C D F G H J Number Correct 1 Write the total number of shaded parts for the numerator, 21. Write the number of equal parts each shape is divided into for the denominator, 8. 2 In the graph, find the color that has 8 half vases, which is whole vases. 3 The whole number,, is the number of completely shaded figures; the fraction is the number of shaded parts, 1, over the number of parts each figure is divided into. There are 3 parts completely shaded in each of the first two figures. These are the wholes. There are 2 parts of the last figure shaded. This is the numerator, written over the number of parts each figure is divided into, or the denominator. 30
