Eureka Math Module 5 Tips for Parents
Activities to do at home to support your child's learning at school.
- Go on a fraction hunt! Look for household items that are divided into equal parts (fractions of a whole and fractions of a set). Record the fractions.
- Roll number cubes to make fractions. Draw pictures of the fractions you make. Place the fractions you've made in order on a number line.
- Identify fractions at meal times. For example, you ate 1/2 of an apple, 3/4 stalk of celery,1 whole tuna sandwich, and 2/3 of a glass of milk.
- Practice making equivalent fractions.
- Plot fractions on a number line.
