Fraction-Fold Fun: Origami Math Magic

Category	Learning Goal	Stage 1	Stage 2	Stage 3	Stage 4
Deeper Learning Competencies	Self Directed Learning	I can use my observations, teacher feedback, and peer suggestions to guide how I work on origami projects, ensuring I accurately fold paper to show fractions like halves, quarters, and eighths I reflect on my origami designs, checking if they correctly represent fraction equivalence and comparison, and adjust my work as needed to improve my understanding and skills.	I can use teacher feedback and my own reflections to choose better folding techniques in origami, explaining how my designs show fractions like halves and quarters, but I sometimes need help figuring out the best way to show and compare these ideas in my art.	I can use feedback from my teacher and classmates to improve my origami designs, making sure that my folded shapes help me understand how fractions like halves, quarters, and eighths work I keep track of my learning by explaining how these fractions compare in size and think about ways to make my origami projects even better.	I can confidently guide my own learning by using feedback and reflection to improve my origami designs I can clearly explain how the fractions used in my designs show equivalence, and I can compare different fraction sizes, helping others understand them during our workshop.
Deeper Learning Competencies	Academic Mindset	I am eager to understand what fractions mean as I fold paper into different shapes and confidently explain how the parts of my origami show fractions like halves, quarters, and eighths.	I am exploring different ways to fold paper into shapes that help me see and understand fractions, like halves and quarters, and I use these experiences to improve my confidence in explaining fractions to others.	I can confidently fold origami to create designs that show how fractions like halves, quarters, and eighths fit together I can explain my designs using examples and compare different fractions by explaining why some are bigger or smaller I enjoy working with others and feel proud sharing what I've learned with my class and community.	I can confidently create and explain my origami designs, demonstrating how different folds show equivalent fractions and comparing their sizes I feel a sense of belonging and pride when sharing my work and ideas during the exhibition, reflecting on how my skills have grown through practice and effort.
Deeper Learning Competencies	Critical Thinking & Problem Solving	I can explore different ways to fold my origami to show fractions like halves, quarters, and eighths, and explain how these fractions are different or the same in size by comparing them through my designs I use my folding to solve problems, like what happens when I divide my paper again, and I share what I learn with my classmates.	I can work with my team to create a mural using origami that shows different fractions, and I can explain how I used those fractions in my design.	I explore origami designs and explain how the fractions we used show equivalence and size comparison as we tackle questions during our project I can share my strategies and solutions with others by explaining my reasoning and showing my origami creations.	I can creatively solve complex problems by using origami to show how different fractions are equal or different sizes I can explain my origami designs clearly and help others understand how they represent fractions like halves, quarters, and eighths.
Deeper Learning Competencies	Content Expertise	I can explore and fold origami to show how fractions, like halves and quarters, work I use ideas from my folds to compare fractions and explain why they are the same or different I make sure my work shows what I understand about fractions and helps others learn, too.	I can explain how halves and quarters are the same in some cases, and I can sort and compare fractions like halves and quarters using my origami project to show what I understand about their size.	I can confidently create origami models that visually represent fractions like halves, quarters, and eighths, and explain how these fractions are equivalent or different by reasoning about their size I can use what I've learned to produce origami kits and interactive puzzles, accurately describing the fraction concepts involved to help peers and community members understand and engage with the math principles.	I can accurately represent and explain fractions through my origami designs, using halves, quarters, and eighths, and can confidently compare their sizes I show my understanding by creating unique origami pieces that creatively display these fractional concepts, and I can clearly teach and share my work with others, helping them see how fractions work in an engaging and artistic way.
Deeper Learning Competencies	Effective Communication	I can clearly explain how I used fractions in my origami design, comparing different sizes and showing the equivalence of halves, quarters, and eighths I can present my ideas confidently during our 'Fraction Fold Fest' and help visitors understand how fractions work in my origami models.	I can explain how different folds in my origami design show the same amount of paper using fractions like halves and quarters I can share my ideas with my team and listen to their thoughts to make our project better.	I can confidently communicate my understanding of fractions by explaining how my origami design uses halves, quarters, and eighths, and I can compare and reason about their size when talking with my peers and visitors at the exhibition.	I can confidently present and explain my origami design at the Fraction Fold Fest, clearly describing how each fold represents a specific fraction like halves, quarters, or eighths I listen carefully to questions from visitors and respond thoughtfully, using my understanding of fractions to communicate my ideas effectively.
