Equivalent Fractions Turkeys

Lately, we've been focusing on fractions quite a bit during math. After we learned how to generate equivalent fractions by multiplying both the numerator and the denominator by the same factor, we collaborated with a partner to create equivalent fraction turkeys--which we thought was a fun way to practice (way better than a worksheet). After this activity, we also learned we could find equivalent fractions through division, which made it easier to learn the concept of simplifying fractions!

What We're Thankful For


After reflecting through a focused free-write on what we're thankful for, we spent some time creating online comics (through Bitstrips.com) to illustrate and share what we are thankful for this Thanksgiving.
