Lessons For Multiplying And Dividing Fractions

Grades 5-6: In this book, Marilyn Burns tackles the topic of how to teach students to multiply and divide fractions -- and understand what they are doing. Through the lessons in this book, students build conceptual understanding of multiplying and dividing fractions as they develop proficiency. And teachers report that -- for the first time -- students really understand the underlying rationale for how we multiply and divide fractions and mixed numbers. - Publisher.
