Wowzers! That’s a lot of fractions resources! Amazing. I think I will edit my abcblogging post to include *your* post!
I love love love this list!
Ben really struggles with math and fractions is what we’re working on now. I can’t wait to use some of these ideas with him! Thank you!
Thanks so much Marcy! I hope that something here can help your son! 🙂
Thank you so much for the fractions pack! This will be an excellent resource when we begin our fraction unit.
I did notice on page 6, in the second step, the number 4 was typed instead of 3 for 1/3 – 1/5.
Oops. thanks for the note. I’ll see if I can find and fix this file!
