Fraction Glasshouse
Grow different fractions to exactly the same height.
The learner experience
A little curiosity. A lasting understanding.
Learners divide equal-height glass panels into different numbers of sections, shade a fraction, and predict which other panels will align. They test the prediction, then construct a matching panel independently.
Imagine this moment
Half, two quarters, and four eighths illuminate at the same height.
Learning & evidence
The learning objective
Locate equivalent fractions at the same position on a number line.
What understanding looks like
Prediction before reveal, constructed equivalent fraction, and explanation of the common value.
Adaptation
Different starting points. A shared objective.
Use a small denominator set and optional alignment guides; extend to improper fractions across more than one whole.
Educator review
