Question

Show how you can scaffold a grade 2 class to understand the following mathematics topic it’s concepts and application. 1.1.1 name and use unitary fractions, including halves, quarters, thirds and fifths. 1.1.2 recognise fractions in diagrammatic form. 1.1.3 write fractions as 1 half.

Answer 1

The best way to scaffold a grade 2 class to understand the topics such as   unitary fractions, fractions in diagrammatic form, write fractions as 1 half is by first explaining the definition then real life application including physical representation.

What is fraction?

A fraction is a portion of a whole or, more roughly, any number of equal pieces. The word fraction comes from the Latin word fractus, which meaning "broken." When expressed in common English, a fraction, such as one-half, eight-fifths, or three-quarters, specifies the number of components of a specific size. A common, vulgar, or simple fraction is one with a non-zero denominator that is displayed below (or after) the line on which the numerator is displayed. Examples of these fractions include 1/2 and 14/3. The uncommon fractions that use numerators and denominators are difficult fractions, compound fractions, and mixed numeral fractions.

Definition or explanation of the topics given in the question:

Unitary fractions or Unit fractions:  A fraction with the number one in the numerator is known as a unit fraction in mathematics. Of all the equally sized portions of the whole, it symbolizes one shaded part. "Unit" refers to one.

For instance, 1/4 is the numerical representation of a pizza that has been divided into 4 equal portions, each of which is being consumed by one individual similarly if it got divided between 2 people it is represented as 1/2.

Recognize fractions in diagrammatic form: This could be done by showing the diagrams which contain boxes of two different colors which represents the numerator and denominator.

Write fractions as 1 half: The 1 half fractions are the fractions in which the denominator is twice the the numerator. That is any fraction in the form n\2n where, n = 1, 2, 3, 4.... is the 1 half fraction.
