These posters support learners to better understand the concept of place value equivalence and benchmark fractions.
Benchmark fractions are commonly used as reference fractions for comparisons, such as one-half (50%, 0.5) or one-quarter (25%, 0.25). One-tenth (10%, 0.1) is introduced as a benchmark value for its relationship to the base-10 numbering system. It is important that students have a good understanding of equivalent representations of benchmark values.
Misconception: Students should understand that 0.5 = 1/2 and 0.5 is not 1/5.
