Teaching guide
Compares and orders fractions with denominators of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8 and 10.
Start with fair sharing of one whole into equal parts, name unit fractions, then build non-unit and equivalent fractions with fraction strips.
Generated and checked in code, so it is correct.
Forgetting the parts must be equal, and thinking a larger denominator always means a larger fraction.
