Mark each centimetre, and use the ruler to draw a straight line along each. *You can use as many squares as you like, but an easier number to work with will be 100 squares*<\/li>\n<li>Design your garden or house plan however you like! Choose whatever plants you like, or whatever rooms you want!<\/li>\n<li>Count how many squares each part of your garden\/house takes up. Write those numbers as fractions. If in your garden the tomatoes take up 24 squares, and your garden is 280 squares total, your fraction will be . If your kitchen takes up 24 squares and your house is 100 squares total, your fraction will be .<\/li>\n<li>After you have written all of your fractions, try simplifying them. Simplifying fractions means finding the equivalent fraction with the lowest numbers. To do this, you need to divide the numerator (top number) and the denominator (bottom number) by the same number, so it has to be a common factor. For example, can be simplified to \u00a0because both 24 and 100 are divisible by 4.<\/li>\n<li>Take a photo of your design and fractions, and post it to your assignment on Teams!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>See the examples in the two videos below:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Designing a Floor Plan\" width=\"980\" height=\"551\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/OWEZhZIh33c?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Fractions in the Garden\" width=\"980\" height=\"551\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/KXjNwQ2lGz0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>Literacy<\/strong>: Please listen to Front Desk Chapters 26-30 (<strong>Literacy 8.1<\/strong>), and then Chapters 31-35 (<strong>Literacy 8.2<\/strong>).
