Fractions require understanding parts of a whole, which is more abstract than counting. Using visual models like fraction bars and number lines helps build intuition.

How can I help my child with fractions at home?

Use real-life examples: cooking (measuring cups), pizza slices, and sharing equally. These concrete experiences make fractions meaningful.

What fraction skills should my child know by grade level?

Grade 3: identifying and comparing simple fractions. Grade 4: equivalent fractions and adding with like denominators. Grade 5-6: all four operations with fractions and mixed numbers.
