A child says that 1/2 is smaller than 2/3 because 2 is smaller than 3. Which technique would be the least helpful for correcting this misconception?
- Give a pictorial representation of both fractions.
- Use paper folding with different examples to compare fractions.
- Use real-life objects to help the child visualise both fractions concretely.
- Lecture the child that a larger denominator always means a smaller fraction.
