Description

This image shows examples of circular fractions for 1/2, 1/3, 1/5, and 1/6. It displays four circular models, each divided into the appropriate number of sectors, with one sector shaded in each.

This representation helps students visualize different unit fractions and understand how the size of each part changes as the denominator increases. It provides a clear visual comparison of these common fractions.

Teachers can use this image to discuss how the size of each part decreases as the denominator increases, even though in each case only one part is being considered.

Teacher's Script: "Look at these different fractions. Each circle has one part shaded, but the circles are divided into different numbers of parts. How does the size of the shaded part change as we go from 1/2 to 1/3 to 1/5 to 1/6? Why does this happen?"
