Unit 2 · Culminating Projects
Fraction Division in Action
Two project versions that pull together everything from Unit 2 — dividing fractions by fractions, whole numbers by fractions, and mixed numbers by fractions. Pick one, or run them as differentiated options. Each is self-guided, interactive, and printable.

Two Ways to Show Mastery
🧁 Recipe Remix Bakery
Run a mini bakery: divide fraction-sized dough portions into mini-loaves, find how many cupcakes a whole batch frosts, cut a mixed-number roll into equal pieces, and decide which supplier deal makes more muffins per cup.
Version B · Real-World Investigation🪚 Maker Workshop Cut List
Be the workshop manager: cut a whole-number board into fraction-sized shelves, divide a ribbon fraction into smaller pieces, section a mixed-number pipe into quarter-meter fittings, and compare two cutting options to minimize scrap.

How to Use These Projects
Standards: 6.NS.1 (divide fractions by fractions, whole numbers by fractions, and mixed numbers by fractions, including interpreting quotients and solving real-world problems).
Both versions are parallel. They assess the same skills through different contexts, so you can assign Version A and Version B to different students and grade on the same rubric (built into each project). Great for choice boards, make-up work, or A/B class sections.
Built in: live fraction calculators with simplification and decimal display, a progress bar, hints for scaffolding, a written deliverable, a student checklist, a 3-point rubric, and a print button so students can turn in a finished plan.
Answer key: Open the teacher answer key for both versions.
