For fractions, pizza slices offer an intuitive way to grasp the idea of parts of a whole, making the learning process more engaging and relatable for students.

Teacher's Script: "Here's another pizza with five-eighths left to eat, but this time it's shown differently. These remaining slices still represent five-eighths of the whole pizza. How is this the same as the previous image? How is it different? Can you think of a real-world situation where you might use five-eighths: How might this relate to time, for example?"
