Factoring Fun!
Sammi is having a party and wants to play a game called Magic Dance. The game requires the players to form groups, with the same number of kids in each group. It doesn't matter how many kids are in each group, as long as each group has the same number of kids. Sammi is trying to think of all the possible ways she can have her guests form equal groups. She invited the entire fourth grade and has 72 kids coming (including herself)! She knows that if each group was only made of 1 kid, then there would be 72 groups! That is way too many groups. She knows that if each group was 2 kids, then there would be 36 groups. Please help Sammi discover all of the possible ways to form equal groups that would work for the number 72.

Now, let's warm up with unit fractions. Don't forget to break those fractions up!
Unit Fractions Warm Up:
1 whole = 1/2 + ___ or 1/2 X ___
2 wholes = 1/2 +_________ or 1/2 X ___
8 wholes = 1/2 +________________________________________ or 1/2 X ___
Use the bunkbed strategy to solve the problem. Remember to turn your bunkbeds into number lines. Use graph paper or a ruler to make your unit fractions equal.
Mimi, Emma, Tatiana, Kacey and Nikki wanted to eat some red licorice. Emma's mom cut each piece of licorice into eighths and placed the bite size pieces into a bowl. Mimi took 2/8, Emma took 5/8, Tatiana took 4/8, Kacey took 7/8 and Nikki took 6/8. How many whole pieces of red licorice did they start with?

CGI Problem:
Joie is planning to paint her bedroom a bright blue color! She has 4 walls in her bedroom. The worker at the paint shop suggested that she uses 5/8 of a can of paint on each wall. How many cans of paint does Joie need to buy? (The store only sells full cans).
Will she have any extra paint left to use to paint her nightstand?

CGI Math Homework, Wed 9-28-16
Using your own paper (white, notebook, graph) create a CGI graphic organizer with icons. Use this to help you organize your thinking and solve the story problem below. Leo's mom made 2 large birthday cakes for his birthday. Both cakes were devoured (eaten quickly) by 16 people, who all got an equal amount. Using your knowledge of fractions, explain how much cake each person got. For fractions problems, you only need to do one strategy for now. You can use both "light bulb" sections to do your one strategy. You can use both "pencil" sections to explain your one strategy. |
