Division of Fractions by Fractions


Howdy! The kids have been working on dividing fractions by fractions, as well as word problems! 

Before working on word problems, they created fraction kits using fractions strips for:
1 whole, 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/5, 1/6, 1/8, 1/9, 1/10, and 1/12. 

The video above is a student attempting to model the solution to one of these problems.

Math Opinions

I decided to have a few students (like G and K from last year) share their opinion on what math is like for them this year and their attitude towards learning. A few more are coming! Stay tuned!
