The teacher copy includes the complete lesson preparation, teaching sequence, diagnostic responses, all original question guides, and updated rubrics.

Diagnostic probes

Explain or draw your reasoning. Your teacher will use these responses to choose what to revisit.

d1. A board selects 2/3 of its rows and 3/4 of its columns. Is the overlap found by adding the two fractions?

d2. Three banners need 2/5 meter each. A 2-meter supply is available. Does the design fit, and how much remains?

Check after reteaching

Complete this check independently after discussing the model.

r1. A board is 1/2 green and 1/4 blue without overlap. What remains blank, and how can a partner check?

Exit ticket

Complete both original exit questions independently. Use a drawing or explanation when asked.

e1. Calculate 2/3 × 3/4. Show a model or your reasoning.

e2. Give two checks a partner can use on your design.
