Number Talks

Number talks were developed for classroom teachers to engage students in "mental math" through grappling with interesting mathematics problems. Educators can use number talks regularly as introductions to the day’s mathematical practice, as “warm ups” for other lessons, or as stand-alone extended engagements with mathematical concepts.

Fractions: Conceptual Understanding Grades 3-5

This PowerPoint presentation was created by Jenny Ray, former math Content Specialist with KDE. It is intended for teachers to gain a better understanding of what it means to teach fractions conceptually. It relies heavily on research-based information about how students learn mathematics. This presentation will show how to use fraction circles, cuisenaire rods, number lines, fraction strips, and other manipulatives so that students get hands-on learning experiences in the classroom.
