Grade 4 - Number
Standard 4.N.8 - Identify the fraction of an object in a word problem.
Included Skills: Fractions
Demonstrate an understanding of fractions less than or equal to one by using concrete and pictorial representations to • name and record fractions for the parts of a whole or a set • compare and order fractions • model and explain that for different wholes, two identical fractions may not represent the same quantity • provide examples of where fractions are used • Represent a fraction using concrete materials. • Identify a fraction from its concrete representation. • Name and record the shaded and non-shaded parts of a set. • Name and record the shaded and non-shaded parts of a whole. • Represent a fraction pictorially by shading parts of a set. • Represent a fraction pictorially by shading parts of a whole. • Explain how denominators can be used to compare two unit fractions. • Order a set of fractions that have the same numerator, and explain the ordering. • Order a set of fractions that have the same denominator, and explain the ordering. • Identify which of the benchmarks 0, , or 1 is closest to a fraction. • Name fractions between two benchmarks on a number line (horizontal or vertical). • Order a set of fractions by placing them on a number line (horizontal or vertical) with benchmarks. • Provide examples where two identical fractions may not represent the same quantity (e.g., half of a large apple is not equivalent to half of a small apple; half of ten berries is not equivalent to half of sixteen berries). • Provide an example of a fraction that represents part of a set, and a fraction that represents part of a whole, from everyday contexts.
