G4 chapter 6 Fraction ( for all teachers who are struggling with teaching fractions)
Iokwe ri-kaki ro ilo RMI.
Today, I’m going to introduce emman tata lesson from DES G4 teachers, ri-kaki Lucy ,ri-kaki Scott im ri-kaki MaryJane.Their ideas will help your lessons and students.
When students learn fractions, visible things will help their learning. All teachers in DES G4 teachers used fraction models for students. Thought the model, students can get ideas “how to add unlike fractions” “how to change improper fractions to mixed number “ and so on.
According to the results of 100% goal tests, we can say the one of the biggest weakness in RMI is fractions. I hope all teachers use fraction models in lessons.
If you have any questions or requests, please let me know. Kommol tata.

Students centered lesson by ri-kaki Greg
Happy new year nan aolep ri-kaki ro iloRMI!
I’m going to share useful information with you to improve students in RMI. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask me about lessons.
Workshop at DES by 6B teacher Mr. Greg Aine was held on 1/6. He’ve learnt how to do students centered lesson in Japan last year. He tried hard when he was in Japan, he woke up at 5am and studied every day to provide emman lessons for Marshallese students.
He showed model lesson by using G4 text book to teach how to add unlike fractions.
In his lesson, he used many W/H question sentences like “What” “How””Why”. If you use W/H questions during the lesson instead of “listen””copy”, students can use their brains much more.
Kommol tata ri-kaki Greg san for sharing experiences and preparing for workshop!

Today, we’d like to share ideas how to teach subtraction.
Emman tata using 10 frames. So please use;)
1 subtract without regrouping
(1) please let students use manipulative.
(2) ex 8-3 please use this phrase
“Mokotata 8 byebye 3 jete ippam?”
Please let them move 3 .
2 subtract with regrouping
(1) please let students use manipulative.
(2) ex 12-8 12 is 10 and 2. We can subtract 8 from 10. Then, answer is 2.
We can add 2 and 2.
12-8=10-8+2
=2+2
=4
3 subtract great numbers
(1) please teach students how to write numbers on vertical form.(line up!)
(2) start from ones. If we cannot subtract , borrow 10.

Please let students write numbers not so small. You can teach them use 2 lines to write numbers.

Please let students understand “ what is the simplest form” .
Many students add denominators, but it’s incorrect. Please show models to students and let them understand why we have to make same denominators.
[shapes]
Many students forget to divide by 2 when they find area of triangle. Please check the last picture and let them understand the meaning of “divide by 2”.
If you have questions, please ask us! Kommol tata ;)
