| Indicator (code): B3.1.3.1.3 compare and order unit fractions and, fractions with like denominators by using concrete, models, pictorial representations and number line | Content Std (code): B3.1.3.1 Develop an understanding of fractions, using concrete and pictorial representations, and write fractions in words and symbols |
| Performance Indicator: Learners can compare and order unit fractions and fractions with like, denominators by using concrete models, pictorial representations and number line | Core Competencies: Problem Solving skills; Critical Thinking;, Justification of Ideas; |
| T.L.R.(s): fraction strips cut from old cartons, bottle tops, exercise books | Keywords: Fractions, Pictorial, Compare |
Phase 1: Starterpreparing the brain for learning Engage learners to complete the pattern. Which shape comes next? Draw it __
Have learners to match the shapes.
Engage learners to draw the circles and shade any three. Engage learners to count the dots and write each number beside __ __ Engage leaners to sing the song WE CAN COUNT We class three We can count We count 1,2,3,4,5 We count 6,7,8,9,10 We class three can count very well. | Phase 2: Mainnew learning including assessment Use pictorial representations to compare pairs of fractions. 3 1 E.g. Which is larger, and ? 8 4 Learners to compare which is bigger from the cut out. 3 2 Let learners compare and using 6 3 pictorial drawings.
Use fraction charts to compare pairs of 3 1 fractions. Which is larger, and ? 8 4 Learners to compare which is bigger from the cut out. 2 5 Let learners compare and using 3 6 pictorial drawings.
Use the number line to compare fractions with the same denominator. Fractions with the larger numerator is always the bigger fraction 8 5 2 e.g. compare , and 3 3 3 2 < 5 < 8 3 3 3 Use the number line to compare fractions with the same numerator. Fractions with the smaller denominator is always the bigger fraction. 15 15 15 e.g. compare , and 3 5 8 15 < 15 < 15 8 5 3
Use fraction charts to compare pairs of 3 1 fractions. Which is larger, and ? 8 4 Arrange from smallest to largest 3 6 , 2 3 and 5 6
For this activity, learners use fraction strips cut from old cartons, bottle tops and exercise books to fold and compare fractional parts, model the required operation and record the results. | Phase 3plenary / reflections Ask learners to tell you what they have learnt and what they will like to learn in the next lesson Give learners individual or home task. |
