=Instructional Plan/Learning Activities= Hook: At the front of the class there will be coconuts which students have found on the island. Students must then decide what to take back to camp when faced with fraction multiplication problems.
 * Content:**
 * Instructional Plan || Understanding || Know || Skills || CCSS ||
 * 1.

Learning Activity (Graphic Organizer, Cooperative Learning, Technology): After learning about multiplying fractions students will then practice on a worksheet and share/compare their answers with a partner. Then as a class we will go over the answers. For the rest of class students can practice playing a millionaire game either with a partner or by themselves.

Artifact: Students will create an informational Glogster about multiply fractions. || Students will understand that knowledge of fractions and manipulating them will impact island exploration. || Students will know how to multiply fractions. || Students will be able to use previous knowledge about multiplication apply it to fractions. || 6. The Number System (1) || Hook: Multiple recipes will be provided, 1 for each table group. I'll explain that because it's just me eating I want to half the recipe. Have students discuss and right down their best guesses at what the knew recipe would be.
 * 2.

Learning Activity (Graphic Organizer, Cooperative Learning, Technology): Students will use a graphic organizer to record a few problems. Then using the think-pair-share students will work on the problems by themselves and then discuss their answers/thoughts with a partner. We'll then regroup and talk about each problem. The final question is to divide the recipe from the hook in half. Students may also practice dividing fractions online.

Artifact: Students will create a blog about their experience with fraction division and explain why it works. || Students will understand that knowledge of fractions and manipulating them will impact island exploration. || Students will know how to divide fractions. || Students will be able to recognize the process of fraction division, know how to compute it and be aware of why this works. || 6. The Number System (1) || Hook: Have students listen to a rap about working with fractions.
 * 3.

Learning Activity (Graphic Organizer, Cooperative Learning, Technology): Problems that involve manipulating fractions will be provided to the students via the wiki. Utilizing team pair solo students will work as a team to complete the first view problems and then break done into pairs and finally by themselves. A graphic organizer will be provided with this lesson that allows the student to write down the steps they went through.

Artifact: Students will create a Prezi that represents their personal journey when solving a specific problem. || Students will understand that knowledge of fractions and manipulating them will impact island

exploration. || Students will know what fractions are, how to add, subtract, multiply and divide them, understand and translate math language || Students will be able to demonstrate knowledge of fractions and how to manipulate them when solving problems. || 6. The Number System (1) || Hook: Have the area of various objects around the room written on paper as well as facts (such as the area of the US) written on the board. These will just be the numbers, so students can guess what all these numbers represent.
 * 4.

Learning Activity (Graphic Organizer, Cooperative Learning, Technology): After learning about how to find the area of rectangles and triangles students will be split into groups and rotate around the room finding the area of various objects. As a class each group will then report what their answers are. A graphic organizer will be provided for this activity.

Artifact: Students will create a Wikispace that demonstrates their knowledge of area. || Students will understand that to find surface area, volume and area will play a role when exploring the island. || Students will know what area is and how to calculate it. || Students will be able to evaluate the area of certain shapes. || 6. Geometry (1-4) || Hook: Students will listen to a rap about surface area.
 * 5.

Learning Activity (Graphic Organizer, Cooperative Learning, Technology): Have students split up into groups they then must decide to find the surface area of an object from the island. Using google sketch-up each group will draw their object and find the surface area. Groups will then be split up so that group members can teach their new group about their object and how they found surface area. A graphic organizer will be provided.

Artifact: Students will create an iMovie that shows their understanding of surface area and how to calculate it. || Students will understand that to find surface area, volume and area will play a role when exploring the island. || Students will know what surface area isand how to calculate it. || Students will be able to relate their knowledge of area to being able to calculate and understand surface area. || 6. Geometry (1-4) || Hook: Do you collect rain water in a bamboo shoot or a coconut? Students will pick which one they think will hold more water, or if they think they both will hold the same amount. They will write it on a notecard which we'll come back to later.
 * 6.

Learning Activity (Graphic Organizer, Cooperative Learning, Technology): Using numbered heads together students will work together on various volume questions. The final question is to find the volume of each object in the hook and verify who chose right.

Artifact: Students will create a comic life includes different objects and the volumes of each. || Students will understand that to find surface area, volume and area will play a role when exploring the island. || Students will know how to calculate volumes of different objects. || Students will be able to compare the volumes of different containers through calculation. || 6. Geometry (1-4) ||
