Learning target With my small group, I can write equivalent fractions, decimals, and percents for the same value — one step at a time, with support.

Why This Matters This is your support small group for Lesson 4.2. We're going to slow this down and build it together, one step at a time. You can ask a question any time — that's what this group is for.
