Students used their knowledge of showing one as a fraction to generate equivalent fractions.

Standards

• 4.NR.2.2 Compare decimal numbers to the hundredths using the benchmarks 0, 0.5, and 1.0, concrete area, and linear models. Use the symbols for is equal to (=), is less than (<), and/or is greater than (>).
  • Use reasoning strategies to sort the decimals into categories of less than or greater than 1/2. Have students explain their thinking for the placements.
    • 4.NR.2 Represent and compare fractions in multiple ways using part-whole relationships
      • 4.NR.2.3 Generate equivalent fractions, including fractions greater than 1, using multiple representations. Limit fractions to denominators of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 20, 25, 50, and 100
