Session Description
(All Levels, Common Core)
When do fraction concepts start in the CCSS? How do fraction concepts and rational number operations build K-12? Come build bridges from early elementary school models to high school equations so you can support your students. Research shows that success with fractions (and long division) predict success in Algebra. We will examine this research and the progressions of content K-12 while sharing strategies and questions. There's no need to freak out on fractions!
