2.2 Unit Fractions of a Whole What do the top and bottom numbers of a fraction tell? Essential Question?
Lesson OpenerMaking ConnectionsInvite students to talk about kites. Ask them the following questions.
Have you ever flown a kite? How many kites have you ever seen in the sky at the same time? What did the most interesting kite you have ever seen look like?
Using the Digital LessonYou can use the lesson opener to explain to students parts of a whole. Point out, or ask students to identify, one group of objects in the sky in the lesson opener. Ask students what objects on the ceiling and walls of the classroom could be grouped together. Point out to students one group of objects on the ground in the lesson opener. Ask students what objects on the tables, counters, and floor of the classroom could be grouped together. Ask students what one kite or one gopher hole represents.
Learning TaskDirect students’ attention to the group of kites in the sky.
• How many kites does Doc see flying? (4)
• What is the whole in this problem? (the number of kites)
• How would you tell someone that 1 of the kites is blue using the word fourth? (One fourth of the kites is blue.)
Literacy and MathematicsYou may choose the following activity.
Invite students to draw a picture of the kites. Have them color or label the kites to show how many are red, blue, and green. Alternately, have students use connecting cubes to represent the kites in the problem: 1 green, 1 blue, and 2 red.

Essential Question?
Example 1 Find part of a whole.
Luke’s family picked strawberries to make a strawberry pie.
They cut the pie into 6 equal pieces. Luke ate 1 piece.
What fraction of the strawberry pie did he eat?
So, Luke ate _ of the strawberry pie.
Shade 1 of the 6 equal parts.
Read: one sixth Write: 1 _ 6

What do the top and bottom numbers of a fraction tell?
Name
Unit Fractions of a Whole2.2
A fraction is a number that names part of a whole or part of a group.
In a fraction, the top number tells how
many equal parts are being counted.
The bottom number tells how many equal
parts are in the whole or in the group.
A unit fraction names 1 equal part of a whole. It has 1 as its top number.
Go to Go to thinkcentral.com for additional enrichmentactivities in the Enrich Activity Guide.
Enrich
Materials: pattern blocks
• Give students a set of pattern blocks. Explain that the yellow hexagon represents 1 whole.
• Have students find what fraction of the yellow hexagon is represented by other blocks. For example, 2 red trapezoids together completely cover the yellow hexagon. So, a red trapezoid is 1 _ 2 of a yellow hexagon.
Math Talk Use Math Talk to reinforce that the denominator tells how many equal parts there are in the whole.

Share and ShowThe first problem connects to the learning model. Have students use the MathBoard to explain their thinking.
Guide students in completing Exercises 2–4.
• For which part of the fraction do you write the number of equal parts? the bottom number in the fraction

In Exercises 5–8, students write the fraction that names part of a group. Remind them to count the total number of objects in the group for the bottom number in the fraction.
Problem SolvingProblems 9–10 require students to visualize and draw a picture of the whole given a part of it. Guide students to think about how many of the parts shown make up a whole.
Go DeeperTo extend students’ thinking, have them draw more than one possible whole for Problems 9–10. Then ask them to draw other pictures showing part of a whole, exchange with a classmate, and draw a picture of the whole.

Name
Use the pictures for 11–13.
11. Use Diagrams The missing parts
of the pictures show what Kylie and
Dylan ate for lunch. What fraction of
the pizza did Dylan eat?
12. What fraction of the cookie did Kylie
eat? Write the fraction in numbers
and in words.
Kylie’s Lunch Dylan’s Lunch

13. Write MathWrite Math What’s the Question? The answer is 1 _ 4 .
14. Diego drew lines to divide the square into
6 pieces as shown. Then he shaded part of the square.
Diego says he shaded 1 _ 6 of the square. Is he correct?
Explain how you know.
15. Multi-Step Riley and Chad each have
a granola bar broken into equal pieces. They each eat
one piece, or 1 _ 4 , of their granola bar. How many more
pieces altogether do Riley and Chad need to eat to
finish both granola bars? Draw a picture below to
justify your answer.
1 _ 8

one half
Possible question: What fraction of the fruit bar did
Dylan eat?
No; possible explanation: the square is not divided into six
A fraction is a number. It names part of a whole or part of a group.
The top number tells how many equal parts are being counted. The bottom number tells how many equal parts are in the whole. A unit fraction names 1 equal part of a whole. It always has 1 as its top number.
How much is 1 part of a fruit bar that is cut into 8 equal parts?
Step 1 Use fraction strips. Make a strip showing 8 equal parts, or eighths.
Step 2 Shade 1 of the parts and name it.
This fraction is called 1 __ 8
.
So, 1 part of a fruit bar that can be divided into 8 equal parts is 1 __ 8
.
Write the number of equal parts in the whole. Then write the fraction that names the shaded part.

COMMON ERRORSError Students might count only the unshaded parts as the denominator.
Example When writing the fraction that names the shaded part, students might write the answer 1 _ 5 instead of 1 _ 6 .
Springboard to Learning Remind students that the bottom number should tell the total number of equal parts in the whole or in the group.

Problem SolvingStudents use the pictures in the chart to solve Problems 11–13. If students have difficulty with Problem 13, have them find a lunch item that relates to the fraction 1 _ 4 .
Give students the opportunity to share and discuss their explanations for Problem 14.
ProblemProblem 15 is a multi-step problem that requires students to reason about equal parts and the number of parts that equal 1 whole.

TEXAS Test Prep CoachTest Prep Coach helps teachers to identify common errors that students can make.
In the Test Prep exercise, if students selected:
A They switched the numerator and the denominator.
C They miscounted the number of equal parts.
D They counted the number of unshaded parts instead of the total number of parts.
