Students will watch the video above as a whole group before completing the following activity.
Students will cut and paste a puzzle matching the LCM and GCF to the correct problem. Students
cut and then reassemble the 4 by 4 grid so that each problem matches the solution.

Explanatio Finding LCM and GCF is paramount to working with fractions. The following are big ideas and
n essential questions I will go over as to the importance of knowing the difference in the two.

 E Description

Reducing fractions is a big struggle for students. Finding the GCF of the denominators is the key to
this problem.

 Students are typically good at finding the least common multiple. Some like to make large
lists while others are able to count in their head. I would suggest that students always
begin with the larger number when finding the LCM.
 The ladder method or upside-down division is very handy for finding the GCF. It helps
students to organize their work and is more efficient than prime factorization.

Explanatio Students will complete the 10-question quizizz on fraction review from the common
n misconceptions.
