Goal: Summarize how the size of the whole affects the fractions of the parts.

Donte and Alani have a big project. Their teacher left lots of shapes that are divided into equal parts. Donte and Alani have to look at all of the whole shapes and decide if they are the same whole.

Donte and Alani know that fraction models must be the same whole so they can be compared. To have the same whole, two fraction models must be the same size and shape. They can be divided into different pieces, but their shape and size must be the same.

Donte puts the shapes together, and Alani uses her laser vision to compare the sizes. Click through the slides to see each set of shapes and help Donte and Alani figure out if they are the same whole!


Your superpowers are growing strong. You can recognize when fractions have the same whole and when they do not.
