Description

This image shows a number line divided into eighths, ranging from 0 to 1. The number line is clearly marked at 0, 1/8, 2/8, 3/8, 4/8, 5/8, 6/8, 7/8, and 1, with each eighth distinctly labeled. This particular image highlights the fractions 1/8 and 2/8 on the number line, providing a visual representation of its position relative to the whole.

This visual aid is especially useful for helping students understand the concept of specific fractions on a number line. It reinforces the idea that 1/8 is very close to 0, aiding in fraction comparison and estimation skills.

Teachers can use this image to discuss the position of 1/8 on the number line, compare it to other fractions like 2/8 or 7/8, and explore its relationship to the whole. This representation supports the development of fraction sense and prepares students for more advanced fraction concepts.

Teacher's Script: "Notice where 1/8 is marked on this number line. How does its position help us understand its value? How close is it to 0? How does this compare to where 7/8 is located?"
