Description

This image provides examples of proper fractions shown as circular fractions: 1/2, 2/4, 3/6, and 4/8. It displays four circles, each divided into the appropriate number of sections with the corresponding number of sections shaded to represent each fraction.

This visual representation helps students see that these fractions, while written differently, all represent proper fractions (less than one whole). It reinforces the concept of proper fractions and introduces the idea of equivalent fractions.

Teachers can use this image to discuss proper fractions, equivalent fractions, and to help students visualize how proper fractions relate to a whole.

Teacher's Script: "Look at these circular models representing 1/2, 2/4, 3/6, and 4/8. What do you notice about the shaded portions? Even though these fractions are written differently, they all represent the same amount and are all proper fractions. Why are they considered proper fractions? How can we tell just by looking at the circular models?"
