FracSi: Testing Efficacy of Language Arts Approach to Teaching Fractions
Agnes Sung
Online Submission
Urban school districts have seen low scores on NWEA Map math scores (Education Recovery Scoreboard, 2024). To foster and promote urban youths' capabilities to learn mathematics, a new method to teach, enhance, and remediate understanding of fractions was developed, Fractions and Signed Numbers Workshop (FracSi). It utilizes the approach of an early literacy classroom to teaching fractions. The implementation of this methodology yielded a substantial improvement in NWEA MAP math scores for one urban high school.
