Fractions are an important concept used throughout advanced mathematical ideas and everyday life. Students need a solid understanding of fraction concepts, such as magnitude, equivalence, and operations. However, many students, including students with learning disabilities (LD) in mathematics, struggle with fractions. In this article, the use of multiple representations are discussed to support and teach fraction concepts to students with LD in mathematics. Multiple representations to include manipulatives, drawings, and numbers lines.
