Small Group Activity:  Using various manipulatives, create the following equivalent fractions: 2 =4 36 You can use pattern blocks, fraction pieces or model a set of items (such as counters).

Find the fraction or picture that matches the one you hold. Every student has a partner in the room that has their equivalent fraction. Find that person and stay with them!

 When comparing fractions with the same denominator, the one with the larger numerator is the largest fraction 1<25  When comparing fractions with the same numerator but different denominators, the largest fraction will be the one with the smaller denominator 5<5 97  When comparing fractions with different numerators and denominators, draw a diagram to help you see what the fraction looks like. The shapes you use must be identical. 2<5 67
