Comparing fractions with the same numerator

smithco11 — 2021-03-10 14:04:06 UTC

Whole group: Use pizza slice fractions to build various fractions with like numerators and compare.
What do you notice?

Reasoning Strategy:
What’s the same? Numerator

What’s that mean? Pieces are different sizes

How do I compare? Use the denominator: Bigger D=smaller piece
*Use butterfly method to check!

Use ½ as a benchmark (quick overview, teaching tomorrow)
