Adding and Subtracting with Common Denominators and Different Denominators
We have been going over how to add and subtract common denominators. To ensure that the students are understanding the concept, we will be looking at word problems that have fractions in them. Follow the link, watch the video, and complete the practice. Once the students complete the common denominators practice, they will be able to move on to working with adding fractions that have different denominators.
