Two pages that go over the whole unit on adding and subtracting fractions, to do together the day before the test. Its 11 questions take the lessons in the test's order, with other fractions; where the test adds and subtracts with equations, the review adds the parts of a strip, subtracts with a jump on a number line and takes a mixed number from a whole number. There is no Score line: it is practice, not a grade. The pre-check and the unit test are packs of their own.
Do the review together the day before the test. Work a question, then let students try the next one on their own, and stop on any that trip up more than a few. On question 3 any two different ways that add up are right; the key shows one. Question 8's 3 − 1 1/4 needs 1 whole traded for fourths first: a good one to talk through. The keys name each question's lesson, so a question the class misses points to the lesson to go back to.
Use the review as practice before a test at school. Ask your child to explain why 1/2 + 1/2 cannot be 2/4.
