The lesson focuses on comparing fractions using three strategies: missing pieces, same denominator, and same numerator. Students learn to apply these strategies through examples and practice problems, addressing common misconceptions and applying concepts to real-world scenarios. The session concludes with a summary and a preview of the next lesson.

What is the essential question of the lesson on comparing fractions?

• What is a fraction?

• How to add fractions?

• What strategies can we use to compare fractions?

• How to multiply fractions?

In the problem with Luca and Anne, what are the fractions of their pizzas?

• 5/8 and 7/8

• 1/2 and 1/3

• 3/4 and 5/6

• 2/3 and 3/4

What strategy involves comparing pieces missing from a whole?

• Missing pieces strategy

• Addition strategy

• Same numerator strategy

• Same denominator strategy

Using the missing pieces strategy, whose pizza has more in the example with Luca and Anne?

• Luca's pizza

• Anne's pizza

• Both have the same amount

• Cannot be determined

What is the key observation in the same denominator strategy?

• Compare the denominators

• Compare the missing pieces

• Compare the numerators

• Compare the whole numbers

Who ran farther in the example with Morgan and Alexa?

• Both ran the same distance

• Alexa

• Morgan

• Cannot be determined

In the same numerator strategy, what do you compare?

• The missing pieces

• The numerators

• The denominators

• The whole numbers

• Strawberries

• Both weigh the same

• Cherries

• Cannot be determined

What are the three strategies practiced in the lesson?
