  • Join to access all included materials

A number line serves as the medium to display visual fractions as scholars examine two points along its segmented length. The line is split into quarters and scholars determine which fraction is represented by two letters labeled at separate points. Because the answer is explained below, consider projecting this as an all-class warm up, covering up the bottom until kids have tried it on their own.
