I don't like unlike fractions!

In Math today we worked on how to add unlike fractions. We learned to follow these steps.
1) look at the larger of the two denominators
2) Check to find the first multiple of the the larger denominator that is divisible by the smaller denominator (That is the LCD)
3) Find equivalent fractions with the new denominator.
4) Add the numerators and keep the denomator
5) Reduce or change to mixed number if appropriate.


Adding fractions: different denominators: To solve this problem, we need to find the least common multiple to get at the common denominator. Can you help? We bet you can!


We will begin our fractions to decimal speed drills quiz on Friday.

In Technology we talked about the importance of lighting and the rule of thirds to take better pictures. Next week we will start our photography contest.

In Band we learned two new chords: A and Am
