Fun With Fractions

Hi, friends... I'm just popping in today to let you know that I've written a post over at iTeach Third that focuses on the F-word... you know what I'm talking about right...

F-R-A-C-T-I-O-N-S

Year after year this topic seems to be one that 3rd graders struggle with. It is also a topic that we need to make sure that our students understand because it is the foundation for  many further math skills.

In other words, if they leave us with a weak fraction foundation, then they will be doomed forever... they won't be able to share pizzas, measure correctly, bake cakes or even follow recipes!

 Just kidding... BUT without knowledge of fractions students will NOT be able to do algebra or percents. 

So what are you waiting for? Click on the picture above to go read about a few tips on how to make learning about fractions fun. Remember we need to make sure that our students leave us with a strong fraction foundation.

Let me know what you think!
