Solve word problems involving division of whole numbers leading to answers in the form of fractions or mixed numbers (CCSS 5.NF.B.3) Divide unit fractions by whole numbers and whole numbers by unit fractions. (CCSS 5.NF.B.7) Interpret and compute quotients of fractions, and solve word problems involving division of fractions by fractions (CCSS 6.NS.A.1)   Teacher Feedback: ❤️ “These materials are a MUST for special education teachers. Fractions are difficult for a lot of students and this pacing and practice helps them to finally "get it" and be able to move on with confidence in their learning." -Tracey M.   ❤️ “Love! Provided repetition and visuals that students with learning disabilities need." -Debra Z.   ❤️ “This resource is great for Special Education students. I've used it for planning lessons for this next year and I am excited to teach them. The material is so much easier to understand than what I have used previously." -Kari E.   ❤️ “It really breaks the concept down and helps students understand fractions." -Tonya T.   ❤️ “My students love this program. They keep begging to do more pages in the packet :) It makes them feel successful in math class and boosts their confidence! Thank you!!" -Lisa L.   ❤️ “I used this to teach my tier 3 math intervention students in grade 7. I loved the option of no cute clip art so it didn’t look babyish for my students. The progression from concrete to pictorial to abstract was perfect. My students felt more confident with fractions." -Sue W.   ❤️ “I firmly believe there is no better math resource out there. This workbook is MIRACULOUS. No other videos, tutorials, or books come close to what this workbook offers - peaceful, easy learning. Amazing!" -Jennifer D.   ❤️ “Amazing!!! So well thought out. There are so many opportunities for the students to practice their new skills too." -Jennifer L.   View More Fraction Workbooks   📘 This Resource is Also Found in These Discounted Bundles: 3-5 Math Bundle for Special Education K-5 Math Bundle for Special Education   Not sure where to start? ✏️ Download a free placement test.

Reasons You'll Love Step-by-Step Math to Mastery™ Resources Boosts student confidence and progress Lightens teacher workload Time-saving: print and teach Easy prep: only black ink is needed Easy to teach, paraeducator-friendly Example IEP goals and shorter term objectives Consistent & predictable format Lots of practice repetitions Scaffolded with structured workspaces Fewer problems on a page, white space, minimal visual clutter Tied to standards Explicit/Direct instruction Systematic & sequential Mastery approach--teaching one topic at a time, one strategy at a time Lessons have "I Can" statements, model problems, guided practice, & independent practice Each workbook can be used individually as a stand-alone intervention for that skill or they can be used together, taking students from the basics of number sense and addition in first grade all the way to dividing fractions and decimals in fifth grade. Can also be used with older students (middle & high school) to help fill the gaps in their learning.   About the Author Hi! I am a Special Education & Title 1 teacher interested in task analysis. My resources break tasks into small and explicit steps, reducing cognitive load for learners so they can feel successful and confident rather than overwhelmed and reluctant to try. I strive to lighten the workload of teachers by making resources as practical and easy-to-use as possible. I sincerely hope my work can benefit you and your students. I appreciate your support and feedback. ************************************************************************ Terms of Use Copyright © Angela Dansie, All rights reserved.
