Math U See Fractions






I use these to show how 1/2 times 1/3 equals 1/6 in my example.  Too many students struggle with this concept and it is so easy when they are shown with the Math U See Fraction pieces.  The math u see is clear plastic pieces divided into different fraction parts.  The other fraction piece is placed over the first one to show how it is multiplied to make a smaller piece. Many times a learners face lights up with understanding.  I ordered these from the math u see program.
