Model Unit Fractions using Linear Bar Models 2-53
Use linear bar models to model 1 half, 1 third, 1 fourth, and 1 eighth. Draw halves by dividing the whole – the length of a bar – into 2 equal parts. Make thirds by drawing 3 equal parts. Make fourths or quarters by dividing halves in half to make 4 equal parts. Make eighths by dividing fourths in half to make 8 equal parts.
