Teaching Fractions Visually By Betty Crume

Subtopics:  “Teaching fractions visually” defined  Examples of teaching fractions visually  Research that supports this approach

Teaching Fractions Visually? Using images to help children understand abstract concepts Using manipulatives to help tactile learners teachfractions.htm

Examples of Visual Fractions html colorful-fraction-circles.pdf

Research-Based Approach  Using manipulatives satisfies NCTM standards Org /fractions.htm htm  Supports visual/tactile learners “Fractions from concrete to Abstract Using Playdough Mathematics”
