Description
This product contains a 21 slide PowerPoint to teach students about comparing fractions. It walks students through 3 different strategies including drawing models, using benchmark fractions and number lines, and cross multiplying. A note taker is provided for students to use. It can be cut and put into math spirals if needed. Students will be given the opportunity to take notes, see examples, and practice each strategy.
This product is aligned to the following state standard:
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.4.NF.A.2
Compare two fractions with different numerators and different denominators, e.g., by creating common denominators or numerators, or by comparing to a benchmark fraction such as 1/2. Recognize that comparisons are valid only when the two fractions refer to the same whole. Record the results of comparisons with symbols >, =, or <, and justify the conclusions, e.g., by using a visual fraction model.
I hope you and your students find this resource beneficial and engaging! Please remember to leave feedback!

This resource was a great addition to our curriculum.
This was a good resource to use during my fractions unit. Thank you!
I loved the follow along note taker and all the ways that this taught to compare fractions! I could not have done it better!
I used this as my lesson in virtual summer school. It worked well.
Great, fun, and engaging resource to teach how to comparing fractions. My students loved it.
Hello fellow educator! Although it's been over three years since I bought this resource, I'd like to take a moment and thank you for making it. Prior to the pandemic, I taught an ESE self-contained 5th grade class. They were a great bunch of kiddos but they were a very low performing class. I worked endlessly coming up with games, projects, graphic organizers and just a plethora of material to help close this class' learning gap. By the end of each day I was drained and still had to help my three daughters with their school work. Your resource was one of the many resources that helped me get through a very challenging year. Even though this review comes in late please know that I'm forever thankful. Have a great 2020- 2023 school year!
This was great! My kids loved it!!!
Excellent Resource. Very engaging.
