Group practice I will give you groups that you will work with to place your fractions. Pin up your clothesline between two chairs. Each person will get a number to place on the clothesline. Green set then blue set. Decide which landmark numbers you need to place on your number line. Each person will place their numbers on the number line and explain why the number is placed as it is. Use the extra yellow cards and pin them with blue tape to explain. What is the “big idea” behind how to place these fractions? How could you transfer that idea to another set?
