How to model equivalent fractions?
Modeling equivalent fractions involves visually representing fractions in a way that helps students see that different-looking fractions can represent the same quantity.
- Use fraction bars or strips to model equivalent fractions. For example, if you have a fraction strip representing 1/2, show that 2/4 is equivalent by placing two 1/4 strips side by side.
- Use area models to represent fractions. Draw rectangles or squares and shade the appropriate fraction to model 1/2, and 3/6 equivalences.
- Draw a number line and represent fractions on it. Mark 1/2 and 2/4 at the same point on the number line, emphasizing that they represent the same position or value.
