NF.A.2 wants students to understand a fraction as a number on the number line and represent fractions on a number line diagram.24 I will cover this standard in my unit when I teach students how to draw a number line and partition the unit into parts. Standard three. NF.A.3, which expects students to explain the equivalence of fractions and compare fractions by reasoning about their size will also be taught in this unit.
