Use manipulatives, or comparative number lines to visually see what fractions have the same quantity. Figure the fractions that are equivalent and list them in that fraction box.
1. Students can choose a
denominator number (how many times a fraction is split) and draw it. Fill in the given fraction amount (ex. ½) and decide the numerator by counting how many pieces are filled in.
1. Student’s should explain in their
own words how they compared fractions, as well as came up with new ones on their own that are equivalent to the fractions shown at the bottom of the page. Equivalent Fractions using a Number Line Equivalent Fractions Using “Square Model” See video for Instruction on this model:
CAN ALSO USE STUDENT MADE TANGIBLE ITEMS
