Lesson 18-- Identifying Whole Numbers in Fractions

Introduction

Hello Mathematicians! Today we will practice identifying whole numbers in fractions.

Take a look at these number lines.  Count the numbers aloud.  What do you notice?  What do you wonder.  Jot down your thoughts in your math notebook.

0, 1/1, 2/1, 3/1; 0, 1/2, 2/2, 3/2, 4/2, 5/2, 6/20, 1/3, 2/3, 3/3, 4/3, 5/3, 6/3, 7/3, 8/3, 9/3; 0, 1/4, 2/4, 3/4, 4/4, 5/4, 6/4, 7/4, 8/4, 9/4, 10/4, 11/4, 12/4

Part 1 Directions:

  • Draw the chart below in your journal.
  • Each row contains various representations of the same fraction, but some are missing for you to fill in.
  • For example, the first row shows the fraction 12/4.  Your job is to fill in the missing word form, whole number equivalent, pie/ circle model, bar model, and number line.
  • Use the interactive to help you build and draw the models.
