What it is
A picture-based page for naming fractions of a whole: the top number is the shaded slices, the bottom is all the slices.
How to use it
- Go over the example together: count shaded, then count all.
- Have students say the fraction out loud before writing it.
- On Part 2, shade first, then check by counting.
Three quick tips
- Use real paper circles if students need hands-on.
- Point out that 2/4 looks like half.
- Keep the reference card out while they work.
Questions
