Different Named Fractions

Worksheet Description

This worksheet takes you through the steps of forming equivalent fractions.  You will use the fraction models to display this. This worksheet is a mathematics educational resource focused on teaching the concept of equivalent fractions. It presents a series of exercises where students are required to write equivalent fractions for given examples, using visual models as aids. The visual models include pie charts and bar diagrams, which are partially shaded to represent the given fractions. The worksheet provides an example to demonstrate the process of finding an equivalent fraction by dividing a shape into equal parts.

The worksheet aims to help students understand that a fraction can have multiple representations that are all equal in value, known as equivalent fractions. By using visual aids, it reinforces the concept that equivalent fractions, while appearing different, actually represent the same quantity or proportion. The exercises encourage students to practice the skill of finding equivalent fractions, enhancing their ability to manipulate and understand fractional parts in a tangible way. Additionally, the worksheet assesses students’ grasp of the material with a “How Did You Do?” section, allowing them to reflect on their understanding.
