Grade 3 learners extend the number line past 1 in this worksheet, placing fractions greater than 1 such as 5/4, 7/4, 4/3, and 3/2. They interpret whether a point is closer to 0, 1, or 2, decompose improper fractions into whole plus unit fractions, and locate exact wholes on halves, thirds, and fourths lines. Multiple choice and fill-in items stretch Grade 3 thinking past 0 to 1.
