Product Description
Fractions 2 is a Notebooking Central booklet featured in our Topic Investigations series. The Notebook Foldables found in a Topic Investigation title are based on content standards that help students develop tested skills or achieve deeper understanding of the most important ideas associated with the topic. As suggested by the title, this Topic Investigations begins where Fractions 1 left off and includes templates for: composing and decomposing fractions; reducing fractions; GCF and LCM; improper fractions; mixed numbers; like and unlike denominators; addition; subtraction; and multiplying fractions by whole numbers--please see Table of Contents for complete list of topics. For more basic concepts, please see Fractions 1.
The front tabs of Topic Foldables have memorable main ideas and graphics that students can underline, highlight, and enhance in ways that individualize them. Students interact under the tabs by taking notes, summarizing, describing, questioning, explaining, sequencing, defining, diagramming, listing, and recording opinions, observations, or data. Notebook Foldables should generate meaningful discussions and debates that lead to student-generated questions, conclusions, and/or concerns that can be researched.
The Notebook Foldables presented in this booklet are not designed to serve as a scope and sequence, but rather as a complement and extension of existing curricula. Pick and choose the templates that work for you, or create your own using Dinah Zike's Notebook Foldables for Spirals, Binders, and Composition Books with its companion CD.
