Great reflections! Models are so powerful when we are aware of when each one is helpful and a hinderance. That circle model is helpful for identifying half, thirds, fourths and maybe even fifths, but in many cases they are challenging when partitioning certain fractional amounts and creating new wholes.
Happy to hear you had some great take aways!
