Módulo 4 de grado 5 extiende la comprensión del estudiante de las operaciones de fracción a la multiplicación y la división de fracciones y fracciones decimales. El trabajo procede de la interpretación de los gráficos de línea que incluyen mediciones fraccionales para interpretar las fracciones como división y razonamiento sobre la búsqueda de fracciones de conjuntos a través de la fracción por multiplicación de números enteros. El módulo procede a la fracción por multiplicación de fracción en formas de fracción y decimal. Una comprensión de la multiplicación como escala y multiplicación por N/N como multiplicación por 1 permite a los estudiantes razonar sobre productos y convertir fracciones en decimales y viceversa. Los estudiantes son presentados al trabajo de división con fracciones y fracciones decimales. Los casos de división se limitan a la división de números enteros por fracciones unitarias y fracciones unitarias por números enteros. Se introducen divisores de fracción decimal y la fracción equivalente y el pensamiento del valor del lugar permiten al alumno razonar sobre el tamaño de los cocientes, calcular los cocientes y colocar decimales con sensatez en los cocientes. A lo largo del módulo, se les pide a los estudiantes que razonen sobre estos conceptos importantes interpretando expresiones numéricas que incluyen operaciones de fracción y decimales y perseverar en la resolución de problemas de varios pasos en el mundo real que incluyen todas las operaciones de fracción compatibles con el uso de diagramas de cintas.

English Description:
Grade 5s Module 4 extends student understanding of fraction operations to multiplication and division of both fractions and decimal fractions. Work proceeds from interpretation of line plots which include fractional measurements to interpreting fractions as division and reasoning about finding fractions of sets through fraction by whole number multiplication. The module proceeds to fraction by fraction multiplication in both fraction and decimal forms. An understanding of multiplication as scaling and multiplication by n/n as multiplication by 1 allows students to reason about products and convert fractions to decimals and vice versa. Students are introduced to the work of division with fractions and decimal fractions. Division cases are limited to division of whole numbers by unit fractions and unit fractions by whole numbers. Decimal fraction divisors are introduced and equivalent fraction and place value thinking allow student to reason about the size of quotients, calculate quotients and sensibly place decimals in quotients. Throughout the module students are asked to reason about these important concepts by interpreting numerical expressions which include fraction and decimal operations and by persevering in solving real-world, multistep problems which include all fraction operations supported by the use of tape diagrams.

When fractions are represented pictorially, they are always fractions ofsome whole. It is sometimes easy to forget to indicate this in a picture, particularly because the idea may be clear in our own mind. The goal of this task is to show that when the whole is not specified, which fraction is being represented is left ambiguous. The teacher may wish to simply draw this picture on the board and have students think about what fraction the picture represents and follow this up with a discussion. When the whole is not specified for a fraction, a picture can represent an infinite number of different fractions: in this case there could be any number of small boxes (1,2,3, ...) in a whole and each possibility leads to a different meaning for the shaded or unshaded part of the picture.The Standards for Mathematical Practice focus on the nature of the learning experiences by attending to the thinking processes and habits of mind that students need to develop in order to attain a deep and flexible understanding of mathematics. Certain tasks lend themselves to the demonstration of specific practices by students. The practices that are observable during exploration of a task depend on how instruction unfolds in the classroom. While it is possible that tasks may be connected to several practices, only one practice connection will be discussed in depth. Possible secondary practice connections may be discussed but not in the same degree of detail. This particular task supports the demonstration of Mathematical Practice Standard 6, Attend to precision. Students are faced with elements of ambiguity in deciding what encompasses the whole. The whole in turn impacts the representation of a specific fraction. Students learn to appreciate, understand, and use mathematical vocabulary more precisely in interpreting and describing the whole and its fractional parts. While using different representations, such as pictures, they use appropriate labels to communicate the meaning of their representation (in this task the whole fraction and its accompanying fractional part). Students also understand the possibility of different interpretations and therefore the necessity for precision in their work.
The goal of this task is to show that when the whole is not specified, which fraction is being represented is left ambiguous.

The purpose of this task is to provide students with a situation in which it is natural for them to divide a unit fraction by a non-zero whole number.
In this unit, students investigate fractional parts of the whole and use translations, reflections, rotations, and line symmetry to make four-part quilt squares. Students have a practical context for using the mathematical terms associated with divisions of the square, transformations, and symmetries. Suggestions for implementation and extensions are included.
This task provides a context where it is appropriate for students to subtract fractions with a common denominator; it could be used for either assessment or instructional purposes.
This mobile app (available for both iOS and Android devices) was developed by the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics with funding from Verizon Foundation. The app is based on the Decimal Maze from the popular lesson "Too Big or Too Small". The goal is to help Okta reach the target (maximum, minimum, or a specific value) by choosing a path from the top of the maze to the bottom — adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing as the player goes. Seven levels with seven puzzles in each level test the player's skills with operation with powers of ten, negative numbers, fractions, decimals, and exponents.
This instructional guide (PDF) is for the mobile app Pick-a-Path (both iOS and Android platforms). The guide provides professional development by discussing the math in each level of the game, giving suggestions for classroom use, and recommending related resources from Illuminations. The Pick-a-Path app is cataloged separately and listed as a related resource.
