Goals of Bits and Pieces II

* Use benchmarks and other strategies to estimate the

reasonableness of results of operations with fractions

* Develop ways to model sums, differences, products, and

quotients with areas, strips, and number lines

* Use estimates and exact solutions to make decisions

* Look for and generalize patterns in numbers

* Use knowledge of fractions and equivalence of fractions to

develop algorithms for adding, subtracting, multiplying and

dividing fractions

* Recognize when addition, subtraction, multiplication, or

division is the appropriate operation to solve a problem

* Write fact families to show the inverse relationship

between addition and subtraction, and between

multiplication and division

* Solve problems using arithmetic operations on fractions
