Economics Links
The first five squares are the BEST videos to teach economics to students. Yes, they're VERY dated, but I have had adult students come up to me and say, "Let me tell you about Econ, Econ ... let me tell you about Econ ..." They may be dated, but they definitely teach the content. I always preface them by apologizing to my students ... :)

Fractions
: I Have … Who Has?
Be sure to shuffle cards before playing. Notice the
asterisks on the answer key. You may want to give more than one card to your
advanced readiness students. Students with early readiness may need partners
for support.
4th Grade : Numbers and Operations – Fractions
(limited
to fractions with denominators 2, 3, 4 ,5, 6, 8, 10, 12; some mixed numerals

4.NF.1 Explain why a fraction a/b is
equivalent to a fraction (n x a)(n x b) by using visual fraction models, with
attention to how the number and size of the parts differ even though the two

generate equivalent fractions.

like my students to figure out my system. J
