Adding Mixed Numbers

Watch this video (with your headphones on, please!):

http://www.khanacademy.org/math/arithmetic/fractions/Mixed_number_add_sub/v/adding-mixed-numbers-with-unlike-denominators

Then, complete pages 109-112 in your math workbook. Check in with a friend when you finish to be sure your answers match. Discuss and come to agreement about any problems you disagree on.

Check out pages 140-144 in your textbook if you need additional instructions or examples.

If you're done early, choose another Khan Academy video to watch or work on your fact fluency.
