Domain: NUMBER AND OPERATIONS -FRACTIONS
Cluster: Develop understanding of fractions as numbers
Standards: Explain equivalence of fractions in special cases, and compare fractions by reasoning about their size.
Essential Questions
How can different fractions
name the same number?
How can fractions be
compared and evaluated
using <, >, or =?
Content Statements
Different fractions name
the same number.
Fractions can be compared
and evaluated using
symbols.
Enduring Understandings
The same fractional amount can
be represented by an infinite set
of different but equivalent
fractions.
Activities, Investigation, and Student Experiences
Equivalent fractions represent the same part of a whole. For example, if we
cut a pie exactly down the middle, into two equally sized pieces, one piece is
the same as one half of the pie. And if another pie (the same size) is cut into 4
equal pieces, then two pieces of that pie represent the same amount of pie that
1/2 did. So we can say that 1/2 is equivalent (or equal) to 2/4.
Recognize that fractions are
equivalent to whole numbers.
Compare two fractions using <,
>, or = and validate the
conclusions.
Assessments
Use the picture to compare the fractions. How can you
tell which fraction is greater?
This website enables you to manipulate different types of equivalent fraction
bars (Recommendation: View the website prior to using hands on
manipulatives)
