Description

This image demonstrates that the sum of unit fractions from a circular fraction is 1, using halves as an example. It shows a circle divided into two equal parts, each labeled 1/2, with an equation showing 1/2 + 1/2 = 1.

This visual representation helps students understand that unit fractions can be added together to form a whole. It reinforces the concept of fraction addition and the relationship between unit fractions and the whole.

Teachers can use this image to introduce or reinforce the concept of adding fractions, particularly unit fractions, and to discuss the meaning of a "whole" in fraction terms.

Teacher's Script: "Look at this circle divided into halves. Each half is a unit fraction of 1/2. When we add these together, what do we get? Can you think of a real-world example where we might add two halves to make a whole?"
