Number and Operations – Fractions 

NF.1- Interpret unit fractions with denominators of 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8 as quantities formed when a whole is partitioned into equal parts; Explain that a unit fraction is one of those parts. Represent and identify unit fractions using area and length models 

NF.2- Interpret fractions with denominators of 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8 using area and length models. Using an area model, explain that the numerator of a fraction represents the number of equal parts of the unit fraction. Using a number line, explain that the numerator of a fraction represents the number of lengths of the unit fraction from 0 

NF.3- Represent equivalent fractions with area and length models by: Composing and decomposing fractions into equivalent fractions using related fractions: halves, fourths and eighths; thirds and sixths. Explaining that a fraction with the same numerator and denominator equals one whole. Expressing whole numbers as fractions, and recognize fractions that are equivalent to whole numbers. 

NF.4- Compare two fractions with the same numerator or the same denominator by reasoning about their size, using area and length models, and using the >, <, and = symbols. Recognize that comparisons are valid only when the two fractions refer to the same whole with denominators: halves, fourths and eighths; thirds and sixths.
