What educators are saying

My students used this activity for the upcoming Valentines Day. We are currently learning this standard and I was able to do a quick assessment of students knowledge.
I loved how this resource can be differentiated for all levels of learners. Some of the problems require regrouping while others are more straightforward. The end product looks great for hanging up outside the classroom also.

Description

Students add and subtract mixed numbers with unlike denominators in this math activity that doubles as colorful Valentine's Day classroom décor.

Problems vary in difficulty making differentiation easy. The first 15 pennants ask students to add or subtract mixed numbers where one denominator is already the LCD (ex: 4 7/10 + 9 2/5). The last 15 pennants ask students to add or subtract mixed numbers where they have to find the common denominator between the two fractions (ex: 8 1/3 + 9 4/7).

Included are 30 pennants, 2 additional pennants without fraction problems (for you to write your own), an optional student answer sheet and an answer key.

Each group of students can be given a set of pennants, scissors and either glue, tape or a stapler. Students can be in charge of cutting out the pennants. Groups can compete to see which group can complete the most pennants or your entire class can add pennants to one string as they complete each one. You may also choose to have your students color their pennants to add to your classroom décor.

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
Add and subtract fractions with unlike denominators (including mixed numbers) by replacing given fractions with equivalent fractions in such a way as to produce an equivalent sum or difference of fractions with like denominators. For example, 2/3 + 5/4 = 8/12 + 15/12 = 23/12. (In general, 𝘢/𝘣 + 𝘤/𝘥 = (𝘢𝘥 + 𝘣𝘤)/𝘣𝘥.)
