This material involves the concepts of comparing 1/4 and 1/2 using models, it becomes evident that 1/2 is larger than 1/4. Teachers will facilitate to the learners on how to visualize representations and to demonstrate that 1/2 represents half of a whole, dividing it into two equal parts, while 1/4 represents a quarter of a whole, dividing it into four equal parts. This would let the learners gain a concrete understanding of how comparison highlights that 1/2 is twice the size of 1/4, showcasing the relationship between these fractions in terms of their relative magnitudes. This visual exercise reinforces the concept of fractions as parts of a whole and solidifies the understanding of how different fractions relate to each other in terms of size and proportion.
Objective
To compare 1/2 and 1/4 using models provides a visual and tangible way for learners to understand the relationship between these fractions.
