Description
using concrete models to represent and name fractional parts of a whole object (with denominators of 12 or less)
Key Questions
Are are two equal parts called? What are 3 equal parts called? What are 4 equal parts called? How can you show equal parts in different ways? What is the numerator and what does it tell you? What is the denominator and what does it tell you? How do you know which number goes in the numerator and which one goes in the denominator? How show fractions in real world situations.
Outcomes
Identify halves, thirds, and fourths of regions and identify the terms and notation for fractions that contain more than one part. (e.g., 2/3, 2/4, and 3/4) Identify and name fractional parts that have numerators greater than 1. (e.g., 2/3, 2/4, 3/4) Use a fraction model to determine if it is closer to 0, 1/2, or 1.
