Jessica's Fraction Book
This example demonstrates how to sort fractions by comparing their sizes. Key mathematical concepts include fractions, logic, and coordinates. Using GeoGebra commands such as If, Sequence, and FractionBar, a dynamic model for fraction sorting is constructed. Suitable for upper elementary and middle school students.
