Fractions and Decimals- Goldfish activity is a combination of literacy and mathematics. This activity encourages literacy across the curriculum, as a fraction concept is reviewed through Dr. Seuss's book One fish, two fish leading to cooperative learning hands-on activity where students experience how we use fractions in real life to sort from a cluster. Helping students understand the relationship between mathematics and literacy at an early age is crucial for their development as a whole child and building a strong foundation of number sense. 

This resource is a remix from Illustrative Mathematics https://tasks.illustrativemathematics.org/content-standards/tasks/1081. Suggested Modifications: It is imperative that students in their early ages of mathematics education be introduced to the idea of the number line that makes sense. In other words, they usually count the tick marks on the number line which leads to an inaccuracy in the algorithm. To help them better understand number lines, the suggestion is to introduce the idea number paths which is another way of looking at a number line. To help better facilitate the lesson, I have added a downloadable document student activity that can be used in cooperative learning groups to facilitate mathematical discourse. This activity also encourages literacy in the curriculum.

This resource is a remix from Illustrative Mathematics https://tasks.illustrativemathematics.org/content-standards/tasks/1086.Considering the original resource, there are a few suggestions added to the remix. Modification 1 - Instead of providing students one type of bean ( as originally stated), it would allow curiosity if students were provided with an assorted selection of beans/seeds like sunflower seed, carrot seed, peas and bean, along with which the unifix cubes can be color-coded for each bean/seed. This would benefit all types of learners as they will be able to visualize and build a concrete conceptual understanding of the content.  Modification 2 - This modification allows students to choose the unit of measure and provide them with different types of ruler ( mm, cm and inches), promoting mathematical discourse on customary and metric conversions as they engage in selecting the appropriate unit of measure. This allows students to identify the unit of measure in an active learning environment. As teachers incorporate these two modifications, it allows students to develop a growth mindset by understanding how mathematics and science go hand in hand, encouraging literacy within the curriculum.
