Model and represent unit fractions including 1/2, 1/4, 1/3, 1/5 and their multiples to a complete whole
Elaborations
partitioning areas, lengths and collections to create halves, thirds, quarters and fifths, such as folding the same sized sheets of paper to illustrate different unit fractions and comparing the number of parts with their sizes (Skills: Numeracy, Critical and Creative Thinking)
locating unit fractions on a number line (Skills: Numeracy)
recognising that in English the term âone thirdâ is used (order: numerator, denominator) but that in other languages this concept may be expressed as âthree parts, one of themâ (order: denominator, numerator) for example Japanese (Skills: Critical and Creative Thinking, Intercultural Understanding)
