5th grade Fractions PowerPoint Lesson: Multiplying and Dividing Fractions

Are you searching for a step-by-step PowerPoint that can be used to introduce fraction concepts to your 5th grade students in a way that will grab their attention? You've come to the right place! This 64-slide PowerPoint will introduce your students to many of the fraction skills identified in the 5th Grade Common Core State Standards. It covers relating fractions to division, multiplying fractions, multiplying fractions and whole numbers, dividing with fractions, and determining the area of an object when a length and/or width is a fraction. Multiplication and division word problems are also included. Each section includes many practice problems. Plus, this resource comes with a bonus set of exit tickets!

PowerPoints filled with visuals are ideal for teaching new content to students because PowerPoints tend to be highly engaging and concepts can be easily broken down into understandable chunks of information. But let's face it... they are so time-consuming to create! Fortunately, now you have an option of using one that is already complete, kid-tested, and ready to go for you!

This PowerPoint is designed to be used over the course of 6 days. Each day, use this PowerPoint to introduce a different fraction concept.

1. Relating Fractions to Division
2. Multiplying Fractions
3. Multiplying Fractions and Whole Numbers
4. Area and Fractions
5. Dividing with Fractions
6. Multiplying and Dividing with Fractions: Word Problems

Each section contains MANY practice opportunities!

This PowerPoint contains TWO EXTRA BONUS FEATURES!!

1. A PowerPoint companion handout is included in this file. As you advance through the PowerPoint, students can record their answers on the handout. The companion handout is available in both printable format or digital format. The digital version is compatible with Google Slides.
2. After each section of the PowerPoint, hand out a half-sheet exit slip and have students complete it independently. When you correct the exit slips, you are presented with immediate feedback on which students might need additional small group or individual instruction.
