Fluency Connection:
A fluent student can quickly identify benchmark fractions and integers.
Fluency Practice: Identifying Benchmark Fractions and Integers
Say: We will be using what we know about fractions and number lines to determine the value of given points. I will show you a
number line with a plotted point, and you will determine the value for that point. For example, I will show this number line. You would
write down the value of the given point, A, “–1.”
Possible points:
