TEACHER NOTES:

Students working with fractions at the fourth-grade level should focus on making sense of fractions and on being able to determine the size of a fraction by relating the given fraction to common fractions they already know.

During fourth grade, students should also explore the idea that fractional representations can be equal even if they are not necessarily the same shape. Students should also become familiar with commonly used equivalent fractions for halves, fourths and tenths.
