Relating Fractions to a Number Line

Coach Noelle introduces a math lesson focused on understanding fractions using a number line. The lesson begins with an overview of a number line from 0 to 10, then zooms in on the segment from 0 to 1 to explain fractions. The first part covers dividing the segment into halves, illustrating how 1/2 and 2/2 represent fractions. The second part explores thirds, showing how 1/3, 2/3, and 3/3 are represented. The lesson concludes with encouragement for students to become comfortable with recognizing fractions on a number line.
