Big Ideas
- Fractions can be represented in multiple ways to show parts of a whole.
- Understanding fractions as numbers helps us describe and solve real-world problems with equal parts.
Essential Questions
- What are different ways to show a fraction between zero and one?
- How do concrete objects, strip diagrams, and number lines help us understand fractions?
- Why is it important to use different models to represent the same fraction?
- How can we tell if two models show the same fraction?
- What does the denominator of a fraction tell us about the whole?
