Fraction Classroom · 2.0.0 · Student pages

Number Line Launch: teaching companion

Read a fraction as an equal distance from zero, counting intervals. Student pages include two diagnostic probes, a reteaching check, and the original exit ticket. The teacher copy includes the complete lesson preparation, teaching sequence, diagnostic responses, all original question guides, and updated rubrics.

Diagnostic probes

Explain or draw your reasoning. Your teacher will use these responses to choose what to revisit.

d1. A 0–1 line has five equally spaced marks including its endpoints. What is the size of one interval?

d2. On that line, a point is three intervals from zero. Name the point and justify the denominator.

Check after reteaching

Complete this check independently after discussing the model.

r1. A 0–1 line has six equal intervals. What point is four intervals from zero?

Exit ticket

Complete both original exit questions independently. Use a drawing or explanation when asked.

e1. What fraction is at the marked point? Number line: 0 to 1; one whole is the distance from 0 to 1. Each whole has 4 equal intervals. The marked point is 3 intervals from zero.
