EXERCISES PART A - RUBRIC Problem 1 Total Points : 15) a. Use your own words to explain the meaning of fraction. (5 pts.) b. Elaborate your meaning by using a region, set, and number line. (10 pts.) (Draw diagrams or any other figures which you believe will help your classmates understand the concept clearly.) Problem 2 (Total Points : 15) a. Give three examples of equivalent fractions (i.e., they are equivalent to each other.) Why are they equivalent? (5 pts.) b. Give one example of a proper fraction and then give any two of its equivalent fractions. (5 pts.) c. Give two examples of fractions that are not in their lowest terms. (5 pts.) Reduce each of these fractions to lowest terms. Problem 3 (Total Points : 10) a. Give one example of a mixed number and change it to improper fractions. (5 pts.) b. Give one example of an improper fraction and change it to mixed number. (5 pts.) 1.a. Meaning is vague and misleading. (1-2 pts.) 1.b. Drawing is vague and misleading. (1-4 pts.) 2.a. Fractions are not equivalent; explanation is vague. (1-2 pts.) 2.b. A fraction is not proper; the other two fractions are not both equivalent to the first. (1-2 pts.) 2.c. A given fraction is in lowest terms or a fraction not in lowest terms is not reduced. (1-2 pts.) 3.a. An example is neither a mixed number nor changed to improper fraction. (1-2 pts.) 3.b. An example is neither an improper fraction nor changed to mixed number. (1-2 pts.) 1.a. Meaning is incomplete but “up to a point”. (3-4 pts.) 1.b. Drawing is incomplete but “up to a point”. (5-8 pts.) 2.a. Fractions are not all equivalent; explanation is incomplete but “up to a point”.(3-4 pt.) 2.b. A fraction is proper; but the other two fractions are not both equivalent to the first. (3-4 pt.) 2.c. Both fractions are not in lowest terms but not completely simplified. (3-4 pt.) 3.a. An example is a mixed number but not (correctly) changed to improper fraction. (3-4 pts.) 3.b. An example is an improper fraction but not correctly changed to improper fraction. (3-4 pts.) 1.a. Meaning is clear, concise, and “to the point”. (5 pts.) 1.b. Drawing is clear, concise, and “to the point”. (9-10 pts.) 2.a. Fractions are all equivalent; explanation is clear, concise, and “to the point”. (5 pts.) 2.b. A fraction is proper and the other two fractions are both equivalent to the first. (5 pts.) 2.c. Both fractions are not in lowest terms and then completely simplified. (5 pts.) 3.a. An example is a mixed number and correctly changed to improper fraction (5 pts.) 3.b. An example is an improper fraction and correctly changed to improper fraction (5 pts.) 40
EXERCISES PART B - RUBRIC Problem 4 (Total Points : 25) a. Give one proper fraction, one improper fraction, and one mixed number. (5 pts.) b. Compare the fractions in the preceding item (a) using (i) visual reasoning, (10 pts.) (Draw diagrams or any other figures which you believe will help your classmates understand the concept clearly.) and (ii) renaming to like fractions. (10 pts.) Problem 5 (Total Points : 5) Order the numbers you provide in Problem 4 (a) in (i) ascending order (from lowest to highest in terms of fraction value) (3 pts.) and (ii) descending order (from highest to lowest). (2 pts.) Problem 6 (Total Points : 20) a. Look for a newspaper, magazine, or any other reading material that contains information involving fraction. Cut it out or photocopy it whichever is applicable. How is the fraction applied? What is its use in the information? (10 pts.) b. Visit a shopping centre nearest you. Look for a product (goods, grocery items, etc) where you can find fraction. Explain its use in that product. (10 pts.) 4.a. At least two examples are not any of proper fraction, improper fraction and mixed number. (1-2 pts.) 4.b.i. Drawing is vague and misleading (1-4 pts.) 4.b.ii. At least two examples are not correctly renamed to like fraction, as evident in a solution process. (1-4 pts.) 5.i. All numbers are not correctly ordered. (1 pt.) 5.ii. All numbers are not correctly ordered. (0 pt.) 6.a. The print material is irrelevant to fraction concept; explanation is vague, misleading, and irrelevant in answering the given question (1-3 pts.) 6.b. Explanation of usefulness of fraction is vague, misleading, and irrelevant. (1-3 pts.) 4.a. Exactly one of the examples is not any of proper fraction, improper fraction and mixed number. (3-4 pts.) 4.b.i. Drawing is incomplete but “up to a point” (5-8 pts.) 4.b.ii. Exactly one example is not correctly renamed to like fraction, as evident in a solution process. (5-8 pts.) 5.i. At least two numbers are not correctly ordered. (2 pts.) 5.ii. At least two numbers are not correctly ordered. (1 pt.) 6.a. The print material is relevant to fraction concept; but explanation is neither clear enough nor “to the point” in answering the given question. (4-7 pts.) 6.b. Explanation of usefulness of fraction is relevant and descriptive; but neither clear enough nor “to the point”. (4-7 pts.) 4.a. A correct example of each of proper fraction, improper fraction and mixed number. (5 pts.) 4.b.i. Drawing is clear, concise, and “to the point” (9-10 pts.) 4.b.ii. All examples are correctly renamed to like fraction, as evident in convincing, neat solution process. (9-10 pts.) 5.i. All numbers are correctly ordered. (3 pts.) 5.ii. All numbers are correctly ordered. (2 pts.) 6.a. The print material is totally relevant to fraction concept; explanation is clear enough, and “to the point” in answering the given question. (8-10 pts.) 6.b. Explanation of usefulness of fraction is descriptive, clear enough, and “to the point”. (8-10 pts.) 50
POSTER PRESENTATION - RUBRIC a. Aesthetic Appeal (30 pts.) b. Presentation Skills (20 pts.) a. Generally, the poster is colourfully dull; the text is annoyingly not readable enough; the design is too crowded, so common, and not appealing at all. (1-14 pts.) b. Presentation is not well- Presentation is not organised; only the group presenter does the talking and answering of the questions “up to a point” most of the time; the group is frequently vague and not concise in spoken words, and shows poor understanding of fraction concepts. (1-9 pts.) a. Some part of the poster is colourfully dull; the text is not readable enough; the design is crowded and has some commonalities with other design. (15-24 pts.) b. Presentation is not well-organised; most of the time the group presenter does the answering of the questions, though to the point; sometimes vague and not concise in spoken words, and shows fair mastery of fraction concepts. (10-14 pts.) a. The poster is artistically well-designed, original, creative, attractive, interesting, colourfully well-balanced, and easy to read. (25-30 pts.) b. Presentation is well-organised; the group excellently demonstrates teamwork, intelligently answers the questions “to the point”, clear in spoken words, and shows outstanding mastery of fraction concepts. (15-20 pts.) 30
