Introduction to Fractions
Class experience
US Grade 4 - 5

We will begin by defining what a fraction is and looking at various representations of fractions in the real world. Each class period we will continue to build our understanding as we explore a variety of operations involving fractions.

As a recently retired Math/Science teacher I have spent countless hours helping elementary school aged children discover the wonder of learning. I was privileged to begin my career in the world of Special Education, taught many years in the general education setting, and ended my career in Gifted Education. Helping students discover their talents, passions, and strengths is one of the things that brings me the greatest fulfillment in life. Encouraging each child to find a way to plug those talents into his or her learning is a vital part of who I am. My work as a Gifted and Talented Specialist taught me the importance of inspiring children to look beyond the obvious to the abstract and helped me to see the joy that comes from viewing every child through the lens of his or her strengths. My hope is that, through my teaching, I can help each child to see himself, or herself, through that lens as well.

Grades Offered
Please bring a white board and marker with eraser to each session. If that is not available, paper and pencil will work. At times, students may be asked to bring other household items to demonstrate fractions. (i.e. a student might bring 3 red marbles and 1 blue marble to represent 3/4) I will always let the students know ahead of time if/when they need to bring the "extra" items.
