Fraction Challenge

Big Idea

Innovation Middle school has a problem. Many of the students at the school don't understand fractions. I am afraid that this year, and possibly next will be very challenging if they don't understand them.

Guiding questions:

Your team needs to come up with 3-5 guiding questions that will help find a solution to our fraction problem.

What were students supposed to learn in 6th grade?

What to they need to know for 8th grade?

Guiding resources:

What resources will you use to answer your guiding questions?

(examples can include surveys, interviews, review)

Identify a solution:

Now that you know more about what students know/don't know about fractions, identify a solution to the fraction problem.

Implement the solution. How will you know it worked?

Sharing results and reflections.
