MCC4.OA.4 Find all factor pairs for a whole number in the range 1–100. Recognize that a whole number is a multiple of each of its factors. Determine whether a given whole number in the range 1–100 is a multiple of a given one‐digit number. Determine whether a given whole number in the range 1–100 is prime or composite.
This is new learning.
Essential Questions:
How are factors and multiples defined?
How do I find the factors of a given number?
How do I determine if a number is prime or composite? / MCC4.OA.4
Prime vs. Composite:
A prime number is a number greater than 1 that has only 2 factors, 1 and itself. Composite numbers have more than 2 factors. Students investigate whether numbers are prime or composite by:
• building rectangles (arrays) with the given area and finding which numbers have more than two rectangles (e.g. 7 can be made into only 2 rectangles, 1 x 7 and 7 x 1, therefore it is a prime number)
• finding factors of the number
Students should understand the process of finding factor pairs so they can do this for any number 1 -100.
To determine if a number between1-100 is a multiple of a given one-digit number, some helpful hints include the following:
• all even numbers are multiples of 2
• all even numbers that can be halved twice (with a whole number result) are multiples of 4
• all numbers ending in 0 or 5 are multiples of 5
Use tools such as the 100’s chart, multiplication chart, etc

MCC4.NF.1Explain why two or more fractions are equivalent a/b = n x a/n x b ex: ¼ = 3 x 1 / 3 x 4 by using visual fraction models. Focus attention on how the number and size of parts differ even though the fractions themselves are the same size. Use this principle to recognize and generate equivalent fractions.
In third grade, students had to generate and recognize general equivalent fractions using models.

MCC4.NF.2 Compare two fractions with different numerators and different denominators, e.g., by using visual fraction models, by creating common denominators or numerators, or by comparing to a benchmark fraction such as 1/2. Recognize that comparisons are valid only when the two fractions refer to the same whole. Record the results of comparisons with symbols >, =, or <, and justify the conclusions, e.g., by using a visual fraction model.
In third grade, students had to compare two fractions with the same denominator or same numerator.
Misconception Document – NF.1-2
Essential Questions
What are some strategies I can use when comparing fractions?
How do I use benchmark fractions?
How do I find common denominators? / MCC4.NF.2
This standard calls for students to compare fractions by creating visual fraction models, using benchmark fractions, or finding common denominators or numerators.
Fractions may be compared using ½ as a benchmark.
Possible student thinking by using benchmarks:
1/8 is smaller than ½ because when 1 whole is cut into 8 pieces, the pieces are much smaller than when 1 whole is cut into 2 pieces.
Possible student thinking by creating common denominators:
Fractions with common denominators may be compared using the numerators as a guide.
Fractions with common numerators may be compared and ordered using the denominators as a guide.
Example: There are two cakes on the counter that are the same size. The first cake has ½ of it left. The second cake has 5/12 left. Which cake has more left?

Misconception Document – NF.3-4
Teach these elements together….
a. Understand addition and subtraction of fractions as joining and separating parts referring to the same whole.
b. Decompose a fraction into a sum of fractions with the same denominator in more than one way, recording each decomposition by an equation. Justify decompositions, e.g., by using a visual fraction model. Examples: 3/8 = 1/8 + 1/8 + 1/8 ; 3/8 = 1/8 + 2/8 ; 2 1/8 = 1 + 1 + 1/8 =8/8 + 8/8 + 1/8.
c. Add and subtract mixed numbers with like denominators, e.g., by replacing each mixed number with an equivalent fraction, and/or by using properties of operations and the relationship between addition and subtraction.
d. Solve word problems involving addition and subtraction of fractions referring to the same whole and having like denominators, e.g., by using visual fraction models and equations to represent the problem.
Essential Questions
Which operation would I use if I wanted to join parts of a whole?
Which operation would I use if I wanted to separate parts of a whole?
How do I compose and decompose fractions as sums and differences of fractions with the same denominator in more than one way?
What is the relationship between a mixed number and an improper fraction?
What strategies can I use to add and subtract mixed numbers with like denominators?
How can I use addition and subtraction of fractions to solve real world problems? / MCC4.NF.3.a,b,c,d
A fraction with a numerator of one is called a unit fraction. When students investigate fractions other than unit fractions, such as 2/3, they should be able to decompose the non-unit fraction into a combination of several unit fractions.
Example: 2/3 = 1/3 + 1/3
Being able to visualize this decomposition into unit fractions helps students when adding or subtracting fractions. Students need multiple opportunities to work with mixed numbers and be able to decompose them in more than one way. Students may use visual models to help develop this understanding.
Example:
1 ¼ - ¾ =
4/4 + ¼ = 5/4
5/4 – ¾ = 2/4 or ½
Example of a word problem:
Mary and Lacey decide to share pizza. Mary ate 3/6 and Lacey ate 2/6 of the pizza. How much of the pizza did the girls eat together?
Solution: The amount of pizza Mary ate can be thought of a 1/6 and1/6 and 1/6. The amount of pizza Lacey ate can be thought of a 1/6 and 1/6. The total amount of pizza they ate is 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 or 5/6 of the whole pizza.
Anchor Chart
Example of word problem:
Susan and Maria need 8 3/8 feet of ribbon to package gift baskets. Susan has 3 1/8 feet of ribbon and Maria has 5 3/8 feet of ribbon. How much ribbon do they have altogether? Will it be enough to complete the project? Explain why or why not.
Example of word problem:
Trevor has 4 1/8 pizzas left over from his soccer party. After giving some pizza to his friend, he has 2 4/8 of a pizza left. How much pizza did Trevor give to his friend?
Possible solution:
Trevor had 4 1/8 pizzas to start. This is 33/8 of a pizza. The x’s show the pizza he has left which is 2 4/8 pizzas or 20/8 pizzas. The shaded rectangles without the x’s are the pizza he gave to his friend which is 13/8 or 1 5/8 pizzas.
Example of word problem:
Elana, Matthew, and Kevin painted a wall. Elana painted 5/9 of the wall and Matthew painted 3/9 of the wall. Kevin painted the rest of the wall. Use the box below to represent the wall. Show the fraction of the wall Kevin painted.

MCC4.NF.4 Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication to multiply a fraction by a whole number.
This is new learning
Misconception Document – NF.3-4
a. Understand a fraction a/b as a multiple of 1/b. For example, use a visual fraction model to represent 5/4 as the product 5 × (1/4), recording the conclusion by the equation 5/4 = 5 ×(1/4).
b. Understand a multiple of a/b as a multiple of 1/b, and use this understanding to multiply a fraction by a whole number. For example, use a visual fraction model to express 3 × (2/5) as 6 × (1/5), recognizing this product as 6/5. (In general, n × (a/b) = (n × a)/b.)
c. Solve word problems involving multiplication of a fraction by a whole number, e.g., by using visual fraction models and equations to represent the problem. For example, if each person at a party will eat 3/8 of a pound of roast beef, and there will be 5 people at the party, how many pounds of roast beef will be needed? Between what two whole numbers does your answer lie?
Essential Questions
How can I represent a fraction as a multiple of 1/b?
How can I use a visual fraction model to express a/b as a multiple of 1/b?
How can I use visual fraction models and equations to multiply a fraction by a whole number?
How can I use visual fraction models and equations to solve word problems involving multiplication of a fraction by a whole number? / MCC4.NF.4
MCC4.NF.4.a
Students will connect the relationship between whole number multiplication and repeated addition with fraction multiplication and repeated addition. Students understand that 4 + 4 + 4 means 3x 4, so they can see that 1/5 + 1/5 + 1/5 means 3 x 1/5. By making this connection, students are able to write fractions as the product of a whole number and a unit fraction. The fractions 7/8 can be written as 7 x 1/8.
Example: 3/6 = 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 = 3 x (1/6)
Number line:
Area Model:
MCC4.NF.4.b – Students will make the connection between multiples of whole numbers and multiples of unit fractions. A multiple is the product of a number and a counting number. Multiples of 4 are the products of 1 x 4, 2 x 4, and 3 x 4, or 4,8, and 12. Multiples of 1/6 are the products of 1 x 1/6, 2 x 1/6, 3 x 1/6 or 1/6, 2/6 and 3/6. Students use models and number lines to help make the connection.
