  1. CATHY JONES Secondary Math Instruction Specialist Center for Mathematics and Science Education Arkansas NASA Education Resource Center 346 N. West Avenue, Room 202 Fayetteville, Arkansas 72701 (479) 575-3875 (479) 575-5680 (FAX) e-mail: cej001@uark.edu Website: www.cmase.edu Math Wiki: www.cmasemth.pbwiki.com Fraction Man (slides 2-5) Gallon Man (slides 6-9) & Geometry Man (slides 10-11)

  2. Introducing… Fraction Man

  3. With the 4 colors of paper fold on the lines, cut, and punch holes, as shown below. • As you fold notice the fractional parts. Punch holes on sides Punch holes on bottom Punch holes on top & bottom

  4. Use brass fasteners to put the body parts together. Label the fractional body parts. Finish your Fraction Man with the following shapes made from die cuts: Large CIRCLE head Small CIRCLE eyes RHOMBUS nose TRAPEZOID mouth TRIANGLE hat PARALLELOGRAM hat band OVAL buttons

  5. The matching colors of his limbs add up to his body, which represents 1 whole. What fractional part does each color represent? ORANGE ? YELLOW ? BROWN ?

  6. Introducing… Gallon Man

  7. Capacity… Investigate the Equivalences (gallon, quart, pint, cup) = = = 1 gallon = 4 quarts = 8 pints = 16 cups

  8. Use brass fasteners to put the body parts together. Label the measurements represented by the body parts. Finish your Gallon Man with the following shapes made from die cuts: Large CIRCLE head Small CIRCLE eyes RHOMBUS nose TRAPEZOID mouth TRIANGLE hat PARALLELOGRAM hat band OVAL buttons

  9. The matching colors of GALLON MAN’s limbs add up to his body, which represents a gallon. What quantity does each color represent? ORANGE ? YELLOW ? BROWN ?

  10. Introducing… Geometry Man

  11. Name the shapes… Body, Legs, & Arms: Head & Eyes: Mouth: Nose: Buttons: Hat: Hat Band: Rectangle Circle Trapezoid Rhombus Oval Triangle (Isosceles Triangle) Parallelogram
