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
Math Friends explore… • How could you use fraction models to build a deep understanding of the 3-5 fraction standards? Standards for Mathematical Practices
Standards for Mathematical Practices • Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. • Reason abstractly and quantitatively. • Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. • Model with mathematics. • Use appropriate tools strategically • Attend to precision. • Look for and make use of structure. • Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.
