Description

This image presents rectangular fraction models showing the equivalence of 3/6 and 1/2. It displays two rectangles side by side, one divided into six equal parts with three parts shaded (representing 3/6), and the other divided into two equal parts with one part shaded (representing 1/2).

This visual representation helps students understand equivalent fractions using a different model than the circular ones previously shown. It reinforces the concept that fractions can be simplified while maintaining their value.

Teachers can use this image to discuss how different models can represent the same fractional concepts and to practice simplifying fractions with even denominators.

Teacher's Script: "Now we're looking at rectangular models for 3/6 and 1/2. How do these compare to the circular models we saw earlier? Can you explain why 3/6 and 1/2 are equivalent? What number did we divide both the top and bottom of 3/6 by to get 1/2?"
