Grade 6 Real World Multiplication and Division with Ryan F

This video addresses two Indiana Academic Standards for Math:

Compute quotients of positive fractions and solve real-world problems involving division of fractions by fractions. Use a visual fraction model and/or equation to represent these calculations. (6.C.4) Solve real-world problems with positive fractions and decimals by using one or two operations. (6.C.3)

Math education consultant Ryan Flessner helps educators envision the teaching and assessment of this standard in Grade 6.

The sixth-grade standards move beyond whole number computation into fractions and decimals. In Grade 6, an emphasis should be placed on the division of fractions and multi-step problems that utilize more than one operation. Educators should note the importance of visual fraction models (e.g., fraction bars/circles, pattern blocks) in relation to standard 6.C.4. It is important to note that this strand focuses on multiplication and division. For ideas related to addition and subtraction, please see the “Real World Addition and Subtraction” series.

Students in sixth grade should be offered opportunities to see fractions and decimals at work in the world around them. Real-world problems should also address ideas that are realistic and relevant to students as they explore experiences in their lives and in their communities. Assessments could range from simple problem solving situations to inquiry-based studies in and outside of school.
