One page to give on the first day of the unit on dividing with unit fractions, before any teaching. Its six questions are on what the unit builds on: one equal part of a rectangle cut into pieces (for area models), a whole number as a fraction (how many sixths are in 7), multiplication and division facts with a number missing (for checking a division), equal fractions in twelfths (for dividing a fraction by a fraction), tenths and hundredths as decimals, and comparing decimals and fractions (for the number line lesson). It has a Score line, and the key names the lesson each question leads into. The unit review and the unit test are packs of their own.
Give the pre-check on the first day and sort the class by what they missed. Writing 7 as 42/6 is the heart of dividing a whole number by a unit fraction: a student who gets it is ready to count how many sixths fit in 7. One who misses the facts with a number missing will need them before checking a division by multiplying. The last three questions lead into the state lessons at the end of the unit.
Use it to see what your child needs before the unit starts: ask how many fourths make 3 wholes, and what 0.4 is as a fraction.

A check to give before the unit on dividing with unit fractions, on the fractions, facts and decimals it builds on. Students name one part of a whole, write whole numbers as fractions, find a missing number in multiplication and division facts, rename fractions, write tenths and hundredths as decimals and compare.
