Understanding fractions
Make a line plot to display a data set of measurements in fractions of a unit (1/2, 1/4, 1/8); use operations on fractions to solve problems involving data in line plots (e.g. redistribute total equally)

Check understanding
- Create a line plot showing lengths measured to the nearest 1/8 inch
- Use the line plot to find the total of all measurements by adding fractions
- Solve: 'If the total liquid were redistributed equally among all beakers, how much would each have?'
“If your child measured the lengths of several objects to the nearest quarter or eighth of an inch and plotted them on a number line, could they use those measurements to work out totals or share amounts equally?”
