I did a mix and match activity for maths. I had to put the fractions in order from smallest to biggest. It was a mix and match activity where I had to match the fractions to the symbol. There was a hint and it was “There are only two groups” the hint meant that when you see a fraction like 2\4 it is like 2+2=4. 2+2 equals to an even number which is four. You can call an even fraction an “Equivalent fraction”.
I also learned that there is a denominator which is under the “Out of”. The denominator stands for how many groups of a fraction you need. For example if it is the number five then you will need five groups of a fraction. There is also a numerator that is on top of the “Out of” the numerator means what the fraction is. For example if it was a number one and the denominator was a number five then it will be a “1\5”.
Good Stuff Aden These are all matching, and you have a growing understanding of what an equivalent fraction is and why they are the same. We will build on this looking at fractions of an amount and how to compare different fractions in order.
