Unpacking Fractions
Classroom-Tested Strategies to Build Students' Mathematical Understanding
By Monica Neagoy

Fractions are fundamental to school math and daily life. For years, teaching fractions has been associated with rote memorization. But this mechanical approach to instruction has resulted in a failure of understanding. This book draws on decades of research and teacher practice to address seven big ideas in teaching fractions in grades 2-6. Each idea includes a vignette from a real classroom, common misconceptions, a thorough unpacking of productive mathematical thinking, and many thought-provoking, multi-step problems.
