What a Kaizly intervention for this skill looks like
This worksheet comes out of a full activity Kaizly generated for fractions on a number line, "Fractions on a Line: Guided Notes and Quick Checks". Here is a piece of it.
From the lesson
Every fraction in this lesson is a POINT on the number line from 0 to 1. To find a point: the bottom number tells how many equal parts the whole is split into, and the top number tells how many parts to count from 0. Watch one thing the whole way through: the line from 0 to 1 never changes size. Only the number of equal parts changes. When you answer, you can enter a fraction like 3/4 or its value.
One practice item
A number line goes from 0 to 1. What number is halfway between 0 and 1?
The line from 0 to 1 is split into 4 equal parts. Each point gets a fraction name. Count 3 parts from 0 to land on 3/4, the point in Example 3.
