Task goals
- Identify the numerator and denominator from a shaded bar, circle, or hundred-square grid, and write the fraction they represent.
- Form a fraction directly from a real-world "part out of whole" word description (e.g. slices eaten, students who are girls, sweets that are red).
- Form the complementary fraction for what remains, given the stated part (e.g. spaces empty when spaces full are known).
- Correctly total a whole across several categories before forming a fraction for just one category.
- Compare two separately-formed fractions from different contexts to judge which represents a higher proportion.
- Explain, using an example, what the numerator and denominator of a fraction each represent.
