Ready to Teach Fractions: Part 1 - 15hr

MATH226

Unlock the mysteries surrounding children's struggle with fractions. Through the work of the Rational Number Project (RNP), you will begin to view fraction number sense as an extension of whole number sense, and become familiar with the Lesh Translation Model, while reviewing learning theory. Explore how using manipulatives to help children develop mental images of fractions (rather than algorithms) boosts understanding. As the cornerstone of this course, the practical and research-based RNP fraction curriculum will be made available for classroom implementation.

Ready to Teach Fractions: Part 2 - 15hr

MATH231

Build on the understanding you gained in Ready to Teach Fractions Part 1, the prerequisite course focused on developing meaning for fractions and working with concrete models for equivalent fractions. In Part 2, you'll learn more about the Rational Number Project (RNP) philosophy for addition, subtraction, multiplications, and division concretely and meaningfully. As the cornerstone of this course, the curriculum will provide you with instructional activities to help students operate with fractions involving addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Ready to Teach Fractions Part 2 is an ideal "next step" to help students overcome the fear of fractions.
