| Full lesson | Create for a teacher a set of content for giving a lesson, beginning with the lesson plan. Each new block of materials must begin with an H1 heading (other subheaders must be H2, H3, etc). When you describe required pictures, write those descriptions in curly brackets, for example: {A picture of a triangle} |

This lesson aligns with the national standards for Mathematics, specifically focusing on understanding fractions and their representations.
Assign students a worksheet that includes a mix of fraction identification, comparison, and ordering problems. Students will submit their worksheets in the next class for review without presenting their answers in front of the class.
Monitor student understanding through observation during guided practice and check homework for comprehension of fractions. Adapt future lessons based on performance and feedback.
