Description
Students will develop a deep understanding of equivalent fractions by learning how to create them using models, number sense, and multiplication. They will also learn how to compare fractions with different numerators and denominators by finding common denominators or using visual strategies.
Whatβs Included:
- Visual Models of Equivalent Fractions
Students will explore how different-looking fractions can represent the same amount using fraction bars.
- Making Equivalent Fractions Using Multiplication
Students will practice multiplying the numerator and denominator by the same number to generate equivalent fractions (e.g., 1/2 = 2/4 = 3/6).
- Comparing Fractions with Different Denominators
Students will use models and reasoning to determine which fraction is greater, less than, or equal, including using common denominators or benchmark fractions like 1/2.

CCSS4.NF.A.1
Explain why a fraction π’/π£ is equivalent to a fraction (π― Γ π’)/(π― Γ π£) by using visual fraction models, with attention to how the number and size of the parts differ even though the two fractions themselves are the same size. Use this principle to recognize and generate equivalent fractions.
CCSS4.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.
