Ordering and number-line work take center stage. Third graders simplify 3/6 to 1/2, decide whether 5/6 sits above or below 2/6 on a six-part line, and figure out that 1/8 hugs zero rather than 1. They put 1/4, 2/4, and 3/4 in order, compare 4/10 with 7/10, and confirm that 6/6 lands exactly on 1.
A matching section pairs 0/4, 2/4, 4/4, and 3/4 with the words zero, one half, one whole, and three fourths. Connecting symbols, words, and number-line points builds the flexible thinking fractions demand.

Understanding Fractions
Part A: Fill in the Blank
Write the missing word or number on each line.
1. 36 is equivalent to 1 2 .
2. On a number line split into 6 equal parts, 56 is greater than 26.
3. 18 is closer to 0 than to 1 on a number line.
4. From least to greatest: 14, 34, 24. The correct order is 14, 24, 34.
5. 58 is greater than 38 because 5 is more than 3.
6. A fraction equal to one whole always has the same numerator and denominator.
7. On a number line from 0 to 1 split into 3 parts, 13 is at the first mark.
8. Comparing 410 and 710, the smaller fraction is 410.
9. 66 is at the same point as 1 on a number line.
Part B: Matching
Match each item on the left to the correct answer on the right.
1. Match each item to its correct answer.
