One reason why to teach students other ways to divide fractions is because when you teach students to invert the fraction and multiply, it does not teach them number sense of fractions. It teaches them a step to find the answer but they have no understanding of why or how it works. Teaching students other ways to divide fractions allows them to have number sense. They have to understand the problem and what steps they have to take to find the answer.

Using a number line to compare fractions develops number sense because it allows students to compare fractions with different denominators. It allows students to put them on a number line and notice that all the fractions are between zero and one.

Number Sense with Fractions Activity One

# data[].attributes.body
This activity is a couple different ways to show number sense with fractions. Students are able to use objects such as counters, square tiles and real objects. Students also fill in circles and compare different fractions. It allows students to see that even with different denominators, fractions can cover the same amount of the circle if fractions are equvilaent.
