The great learning that has taken place is that we are becoming more familiar with fractions and their values. We are also getting better and more accurate with comparing fractions to each other.

Fractions!
We are learning fractions! We have been working on learning the value of common fractions and decimal fractions and it is coming along. Today we worked on ordering fractions based on their value and it was tough. It is hard for us at times to reason the value of a fraction when we compare them with a different fraction. It is also difficult at times to consider their value of a fraction when it is a mixed fraction (1 and 1/2) or improper fraction (6/4).
The great learning that has taken place is that we are becoming more familiar with fractions and their values. We are also getting better and more accurate with comparing fractions to each other.
Parents: take time at home to talk with your student about fractions in every day life. We have all had to double or half a recipe, maybe your 4th grader can help you with that!
