Description: Uses partitioning of objects, set theory, and the number line to teach equivalent fractions for whole objects and sets of objects. Reviews the numerator and denominator and then partitions a pitcher, a stand, and an umbrella to show equal parts. Groups sets of children with circles and pixillation to show equivalent subsets and presents equivalent fractions greater than one using the number line. Ends by illustrating how to convert fractions to their equivalents by multiplying numerator and denominator by the same number, Explains how different fractions can be equivalent, and how they can be represented on the number line.
