Description: Third grade is a critical year in which students should develop strong foundations for understanding fractions. During this session, teachers will explore hands-on activities and tasks designed to support students in developing conceptual understandings of fractions as numbers. Teachers will deepen their understanding of the third grade fractions standards, seeing them as part of a progression starting in first grade and continuing into middle school. Participants will receive prepared materials and manipulatives, including fraction squares, Cuisenaire Rods and KNPIG (Kentucky Numeracy Project Intervention Guide)activities.
