Sharing some updates with regard to my elementary boy. Though it may seem that I’m posting a lot about preschool activities, in the background my 9 years old is doing a lot of work too in math, geography/history, and science. Now, one of the things he worked on last year was his fractions. After working fractions and fraction equivalence, Mavi worked on addition and subtraction of fractions. He did very well on this. With one simple presentation, he grasped the concept right away, and after which he did a lot of practise using our fraction cut-outs. Somehow, I find this straightforward, meaning if your child knows about their basic addition and subtraction they can breezily work on this and move on to multiplication of fractions or working with unlike fractions.
