Fraction Time!

We've started a fraction intervention in fourth grade.  This is one of my favorite interventions.  I use Marilyn Burns', Do the Math, and I love that it is completely hands-on and game oriented.  For the first time, I am trying out the Fractions B module.  I usually use the Fractions A but with the common core standards, our students seem to have a good grasp of the foundation of fractions by fourth grade.  So far it has been going well.  The students are really engaged throughout the lessons and have fun with the games.







We started out learning how to play, "Cover Up".  The students need to use their fraction pieces to be the first one to cover up 1 whole.

They enjoy using the magnetic pieces.
