Description
8 sentence frames to help your students explain their thinking when comparing fractions. Some of the sentence frames work around ideas of comparing fractions to half, comparing fractions with the same numerators, and comparing fractions with the same denominators. There are also sentence frames with a basic outline to compare any fraction and explain their thinking. Great for English Language Learners who need additional scaffolding for their thinking!

CCSS3.NF.A.3
Explain equivalence of fractions in special cases, and compare fractions by reasoning about their size.
CCSS3.NF.A.3a
Understand two fractions as equivalent (equal) if they are the same size, or the same point on a number line.
CCSS3.NF.A.3d
Compare two fractions with the same numerator or the same denominator by reasoning about their size. Recognize that comparisons are valid only when the two fractions refer to the same whole. Record the results of comparisons with the symbols >, =, or <, and justify the conclusions, e.g., by using a visual fraction model.
CCSS4.NF.A.1
Explain why a fraction 𝘢/𝘣 is equivalent to a fraction (𝘯 × 𝘢)/(𝘯 × 𝘣) by using visual fraction models, with attention to how the number and size of the parts differ even though the two fractions themselves are the same size. Use this principle to recognize and generate equivalent fractions.
CCSS4.NF.A.2
Compare two fractions with different numerators and different denominators, e.g., by creating common denominators or numerators, or by comparing to a benchmark fraction such as 1/2. Recognize that comparisons are valid only when the two fractions refer to the same whole. Record the results of comparisons with symbols >, =, or <, and justify the conclusions, e.g., by using a visual fraction model.
