Book Description

Fractions is one concept that consistently proves difficult for students to understand. This intervention program has been designed as a targeted approach to catch kids up on multiple years of fraction concepts that ideally should have been developed in primary school, but which I have found are often missing for students in secondary school. Inside you will find diagnostic tasks to uncover misconceptions that are holding kids back from understanding fractions as well as lessons with unique confrontational questions to fix misconceptions for good. These lessons will show you how to lead kids to abandon their wrong ideas and figure out how fractions work for themselves so that they really understand them and don't forget what we are teaching.
