Thanks for joining in on the Fly on the Math Teacher’s Wall Blog Hop. This is definitely one of my favorite blog hops out there because it is CONTENT focused! Just a bunch of math nerds talking about instruction 🙂
If you look at the CCLS, fraction standards don’t start until 3rd grade.
… or do they?
Primary learners are studying the foundations of fractions and the K,1,2 standards support this learning. If you are a primary teacher or an intermediate teacher struggling with how to reach students who are having difficulty with fractions take a walk back into primary math standards.
If you stick with me to the end of this post, you will be rewarded with an activity that can be used with either second grade students or as an intervention for older students who are struggling with the idea of understanding the meaning of a denominator and how denominators can be used to compare.
If you would like to explore unit size through measurement with your second graders OR if you have intermediate students who still struggle to compare fractions with like denominators who need more instruction on the relationship between unit sizes, click HERE to grab a free activity.
Thanks so much for stopping by!
