I have been teaching math, and fraction concepts, for well over twenty years. I have a masters of education from Johns Hopkins University. Helping students with fractions has always been one of my favorite topics to discuss because it can be confusing when focusing on numbers alone but I know how to develop a deep sense of fraction understanding!

Homework Offered
I hope that students use their fraction tiles to teach and show others how to work with and compute with fractions between classes. I can provide appropriate worksheets for students if parents request one between sessions. 
0 - 1 hours per week outside of class
Assessments Offered
I will write an informal assessment for each learner after the last session is complete. 
Grades Offered

There is a fraction tile pdf to print out and color. Please print out two pages of fraction tiles. We will use the tiles in each class.
