Included Skills: Fractions, Multiplication
Demonstrate an understanding of fractions less than or equal to one by using concrete and pictorial representations to: name and record fractions for the parts of a whole or a set, compare and order fractions, model and explain that for different wholes, two identical fractions may not represent the same quantity, provide examples of where fractions are used. • Represent a fraction using concrete materials. • Represent a fraction based on a symbolically concrete representation (e.g., circles for cookies). • Name and record the fraction for the included and not included parts of a set. • Name and record the shaded and non-shaded (included and not included) parts of a whole. • Represent a fraction pictorially by indicating parts of a given set. • Represent a fraction pictorially by indicating parts of a whole. • Explain how denominators can be used to compare two unit fractions with numerator 1. • Order a set of fractions that have the same numerator and explain the ordering. • Order a set of fractions that have the same denominator and explain the ordering. • Identify which of the benchmarks 0, 1/2, or 1 is closer to a given fraction. • Name fractions between two benchmarks on a number line. • Order a set of fractions by placing them on a number line with given benchmarks. • Provide examples of when two identical fractions may not represent the same quantity (e.g., half of a large apple is not equivalent to half of a small apple; half a group of ten cloudberries is not equivalent to half of a group of sixteen cloudberries). • Provide an example of a fraction that represents part of a set, a fraction that represents part of a whole, or a fraction that represents part of a length from everyday contexts.
