whole?

Standard - CC.2.1.4.C.1
Extend the understanding of fractions to show equivalence
and ordering.
Students will be able to understand that the size of a
fraction depends on the size of the whole.
Formative Assessment
Ask students to describe how to compare fractional
parts of different-size wholes when the fractions are the
same, and how to compare fractional parts of the
same-size wholes when the fractions are different.
Creativity and innovation
Research and information fluency
Communication and collaboration
Critical thinking, problem solving, and decision making

Many visuals will be used to differentiate the instruction

to meet a multitude of types of learners.
