About this printable

This printable is a one-page strategy mat broken into numbered prompts: 1) build a number line, 2) mark fractions, 3) compare fractions, 4) plot equivalent fractions, and 5) solve and show thinking (plotting, ordering, and finding midpoints). It is a scaffolded visual support that reminds pupils of key steps when working with fractions on a number line and provides short practice items and spaces for working. Use it as a scaffolded worksheet, reference mat for independent practice, or a small-group activity.
