8 Lessons
What Your Child Will Learn
- 1
Same Size, Different Names
Discover that the same amount can have different fraction names by comparing equal-sized pieces with different labels.
Objective: Students will understand that the same amount can be named with different fractions and identify equivalent fractions using visual models.45 minutes - 2
Equivalent Fractions on the Number Line
Use stacked number lines to prove fraction equivalence and discover the pattern connecting equivalent fractions.
Objective: Students will use stacked number lines to identify and verify equivalent fractions, understanding that equivalent fractions occupy the same position.45 minutes - 3
Making Equivalent Fractions (Multiplying by 1)
Discover the multiplicative pattern for generating equivalent fractions and understand why multiplying by 2/2, 3/3, etc. creates equivalent fractions.
Objective: Students will generate equivalent fractions by multiplying numerator and denominator by the same number, and explain why this works using the identity property.45 minutes - 4
Equivalent Fractions with Halves and Fourths
Master the halves-fourths-eighths family of equivalent fractions through systematic practice and real-world connections.
Objective: Students will fluently generate and recognize equivalent fractions in the halves, fourths, and eighths family.45 minutes - 5
Equivalent Fractions with Thirds and Sixths
Master the thirds-sixths family and discover connections between different fraction families.
Objective: Students will fluently generate and recognize equivalent fractions in the thirds and sixths family, and connect to the halves-fourths family.45 minutes - 6
Simplifying Fractions
Learn to find simpler equivalent fractions by dividing numerator and denominator by the same number.
Objective: Students will simplify fractions by finding equivalent fractions with smaller numerators and denominators.45 minutes - 7
Generating Multiple Equivalent Fractions
Develop fluency in generating multiple equivalent fractions in both directions (larger and smaller denominators).
Objective: Students will generate multiple equivalent fractions for any given fraction, working both up (larger denominators) and down (simplifying).45 minutes - 8
Equivalent Fractions Review and Application
Consolidate all FR-2 skills through mixed practice, real-world applications, and checkpoint preparation.
Objective: Students will demonstrate mastery of FR-2 concepts through interleaved practice and real-world applications.45 minutes
