Brian Lindaman, from CSU Chico, will be discussing highlights from the new proposed CA Math Framework, including an overview of the new chapter arrangement, revised timeline, focal points of each chapter, and a discussion of changes between the May 2021 version and the current version. Opportunities to delve more deeply into particular vignettes and language...

In this session you will investigate the conceptual teaching of addition and subtraction of fractions. We will explore how and when to use common multiples and find and use the greatest common factor. Additionally, we will be linking hands-on manipulatives to addition and subtraction algorithms. We will utilize the CCSS Progression Documents to model how...

In this session you will investigate the conceptual teaching of multiplication of fractions. We will explore the rectangular and area models of multiplication. Additionally, we will link models of concrete manipulatives to the multiplication algorithm. We will utilize the CCSS Progression Documents to model how to teach the beginnings of fractions through the algorithms. Date:...

In this session you will explore ways to help students conceptually understand division of fractions. We will use hands-on manipulatives and the rectangular area model of division. How does the concept relate to the algorithm? Why do we flip the second fraction when we divide? We will utilize the CCSS Progression Documents to model how...
