Description

This image is a variation of the previous one, but now using thirds. It shows a circle divided into three equal parts, each labeled 1/3, with an equation showing 1/3 + 1/3 + 1/3 = 1.

This representation builds on the previous example, helping students understand that the principle of unit fractions adding to a whole applies to different denominators. It reinforces the concept of fraction addition and the relationship between unit fractions and the whole.

Teachers can use this image to extend students' understanding of adding unit fractions and to discuss patterns they might notice as the denominator changes.

Teacher's Script: "Now we're looking at thirds. Each part of the circle is 1/3. How many 1/3 pieces do we need to add together to make a whole? Can you write an equation to show this? How is this similar to or different from what we saw with halves?"
