Abstract
Do your students have strong number sense with fractions? Do they use this number sense to reason about fractions, solve problems, and determine whether answers to fraction problems make sense? We will engage in classroom tested hands-on activities that help Grades 3-8 students reason about fractional quantities and develop number sense with fractions.
