  2. Fractions=Trouble • By: Claudia Mills • Reading Level: 4th grade • This book is easy enough for most students to understand. I would read this book at the beginning of the lesson to show students that a lot of students can struggle with fractions, but it is nothing to be ashamed or embarrassed by, and with some extra help and practice, everyone can understand it!

  3. Full House: an Invitation to Fractions • Reading level: 3rd Grade • This book would be a quick and simple read for the students. The book describes fractions using desserts, something all students can relate and be interested in.

  4. Math=Fun • Reading Level: 2nd grade • This book is great for reinforcing adding and subtracting fractions with like denominators.

  5. Fraction Action Reading Level: 4th grade This is broken into five chapters that each explain how to look at fractions different ways. I really like how this book is separated into chapters because that is more of what 5th grade students are reading.

  6. http://www.mathsisfun.com/definitions/fraction.html • This site has definitions of what a fraction is and the parts of a fraction. It also has illustrations of pizza that the student changes the fraction denominator and numeration and see how the pizza changes in size.

  7. Working with Fractions • Reading Level: • This book explains definitions like numerator and denominators. It also talks about what to do if with unlike fractions. This book would be resourceful when explain what the Least Common Multiple is.

  8. Fraction Stories • Reading Level: 6 • This book seems awesome! It contains stories with reflection math questions at the end of each. I could read a few each day of my unit lesson. The lightheartedness of the stories will kept the attention of the students as well.
