2 Whole = 4 parts Fraction Part(s) Recommendations
You can make any necessary changes to the ppt to meet the specific needs of your students Preview in presentation mode prior to using in your teaching– there is a lot animation! Teacher Edition: p Objective(s): 1.01, 101.a,1.01b, Miscellaneous Notes: the idea of "whole“ and “parts” may still be an issue for some students to grasp in their heads and make connections to the concept of money. Therefore it may be necessary to either activate prior knowledge/experiences or continue to build background knowledge with the concept.

3 Denominator (d)-- down
Fraction Numerator (u)-- up Denominator (d)-- down Numerator Denominator Recommendations You can make any necessary changes to the ppt to meet the specific needs of your students Preview in presentation mode prior to using in your teaching– there is a lot animation! Teacher Edition: TE p. 181 Objective(s): 1.01a Miscellaneous Notes: This slide and its various forms have been used in previous lessons, so for most this will be a review. However some students may need a “hook” to help them recall the key vocabulary used with fractions.

4 Decimal A symbol used to separate ones and tenths in decimal numbers
A symbol used to separate dollars and cents in money $ 8.59 1.2 Recommendations You can make any necessary changes to the ppt to meet the specific needs of your students Preview in presentation mode prior to using in your teaching– there is a lot animation! Teacher Edition: p Objective(s): 1.01, 1.01a, 1.01b Miscellaneous Notes: This slide is included to use as a quick review since students have most likely had numerous opportunities to use place value as part of their learning Make sure students have a clear picture of “place value” and the relationship it has with decimals and fractions– you could ask “How does place value affect decimals and fractions?” Click for the picture to appear. Then have a brief discussion on it –the hope is that students will self discover that the picture represents place value. The word "Decimal" really means "based on 10" (From Latin decima: a tenth part)
