Agenda (Print agenda for each person to have during CAD) 
11:50 - 11:55  - Sign-in to Google Drive/Be ready to start CAD

11:55 -11:15- Review Norms/Reflect

*Let's set a timer for each person, so one person is speaking at a time. Also, we want to keep our reflection to the specified time limit.

11:15 - 11:45  Discuss Info. from AMSTI Meeting

Brainstorm ways to best use our remaining fraction time.

Thoughts about Fraction Unit next year

11:15 - 12:10  Decimals

Look over unit, align with standards, create decimal assessments

Decimal Standards 

16.) Express a fraction with denominator 10 as an equivalent fraction with denominator 100, and use this technique to add two fractions with respective denominators 10 and 100. (Students who can generate equivalent fractions can develop strategies for adding fractions with unlike denominators in general. But addition and subtraction with unlike denominators in general is not a requirement at this grade.) [4-NF5]

Example: Express ³/₁₀ as ³⁰/₁₀₀, and add ³/₁₀ + ⁴/₁₀₀ = ³⁴/₁₀₀.

17.) Use decimal notation for fractions with denominators 10 or 100. [4-NF6]

Example: Rewrite 0.62 as ⁶²/₁₀₀; describe a length as 0.62 meters; locate 0.62 on a number line diagram

18.) Compare two decimals to hundredths by reasoning about their size. Recognize that comparisons are valid only when the two decimals refer to the same whole. Record the results of comparisons with the symbols >, =, or <, and justify the conclusions, e.g., by using a visual model. [4-NF7]
