Represent Improper Fractions: Eighths

Overview:

This worksheet helps students represent improper fractions with eighths in different ways. Designed for year 4 and 5 students.

Learning Objectives:

• Convert improper fractions with eighths to mixed numbers.
• Represent fractions using visual models such as fraction bars and circles.
• Develop an understanding of improper fractions and their placement on a number line.

How the Activity Works:

Students are presented with the fractions four eighths, nine eighths, fourteen eighths, and twenty eighths. For each fraction, they create visual models (fraction circles and bars), convert the improper fractions to mixed numbers, and write the fractions in words. They also place the fractions on a number line to build a deeper understanding of their values.
