Teaching Equivalent Fractions

What it is

Equivalent fractions are different names for the same amount: one half equals two fourths equals four eighths.

When a child is ready

Teach it after the child can name and draw simple fractions and compare halves, fourths, and eighths.

If they struggle

Fold the same strip of paper in halves, then fourths, then eighths, and shade the same amount each time. The picture proves equivalence before the multiplication rule explains it.
