  • Experience activities that show you how to use manipulatives and questioning to teach fractions, equivalent fractions, and operations with fractions. Division of fractions will finally make sense! Activities are based on a progression through the three stages of learning—concrete, pictorial, and abstract—and focus on students making sense of the math.
