For students in upper elementary grades and even middle school, fractions present a considerable challenge. It is in the area of fractions that students often give up trying to understand and resort instead to meaningless rules. Van de Walle 39
Let’s Do Some Math!
Fractions
Math Friends explore… How could you use fraction models to build a deep understanding of the 3-5 fraction standards? Standards for Mathematical Practices
Instruction Must Change
1.Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. 2.Reason abstractly and quantitatively. 3.Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. 4.Model with mathematics. 5.Use appropriate tools strategically 6.Attend to precision. 7.Look for and make use of structure. 8.Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.
