Teach Fractions From Whole to Part Using Familiar Durable Images

Back to Lecture Topics Teach Fractions From Whole-to-Part Using Familiar Durable Images This presentation will demonstrate methods that ensure the correct encoding of equivalent forms of fractions, multiplication, and the addition and subtraction of fractions with unlike denominators.  Familiar, semantic-based graphic organizers specific to a common denominator facilitate the integration of the student’s conceptual understanding with related procedures.  These strategies provide a means to apply visual processing and semantic–based reasoning to help drive computations.  They are of particular benefit to students who have difficulty learning, sequencing, and executing multistep procedures.  These files are provided free- as a courtesy to those who have taken a class from  Chris Woodin/WoodinMath/Landmark School.  All rights are reserved.  Please download and use these files for your own personal use.  Please do NOT repost them to a server, or change them in any way, redistribute them,  or post the files on another website.
