T3
Find and position rational numbers on a number line*
NS.6 a & c
Lesson 1
Draw a number line 0-1, break it into fifths. Label 0 1nd 1. Graph 1/5 and label it A (don't write 1/5). Ask students what number A represents. Label 1 2/5 as B (but don't write the number). Discuss.
Reminders:
Draw a visible dot on the number line to represent the number
If your number line doesn't have the number you graphed, write the number above or below the dot
Sketch the number line. Then graph each of the three rational numbers:

Notes
All 'rational numbers' can be represented by a point on a number line.
Rational number: any number that can be written as a fraction (ratio) -- denominator is not zero
Integer: a whole number that can be positive, negative, or zero. Examples include -3, 0, and 7.

Due 9/12
1. In your notebook, make meaningful notes for your forgetful selves
2. CYUqs → Click the link below. Do in your notebook. You chose where you want to start. Check answers as you’re working. If you make a mistake, fix it. If you need help, get help. If someone else needs help, give help.
Answers:
3. Stuck? Choose to persevere: review your thinking, try different approaches, ask for help, search
Lesson 2
Let's make some number lines with rational numbers on them
Extend
Due 9/15
What is the value of each point if?
For each number line, start with what is given (one of the points). Use that to figure out the interval. Fill in as many tick marks as you need, then write A=, B=, C=, D=
Check answers as you're working:
Lesson 3
After completing yesterday's extend activity, which questions were challenging? Which ones were easy?
* Please fold this in half and glue it into your notebook. It's okay that some questions will be glued.
