In this video, Dr. Chris Riley-Tillman, a Professor at the University of Missouri and NCII Senior Advisor, discusses how evidence-based practices, instruction, and intervention change as academic and behavior needs become more severe.
In Module 5 of the Intensive Intervention in Mathematics Course Content we focus on three instructional strategies teachers should embed within every intensive intervention session. We rely on a strong research base for these recommendations about fluency, problem solving, and motivation.
This video demonstrates how to use the set model to convert mixed numbers to improper fractions. It is important that students are exposed to converting fractions using this model because it is often how fractions are represented in the real world. Beginners and students who struggle may find the set model difficult to understand because the whole (1) is represented by a set of chips (4 chips in this example); therefore, students will benefit from explicit modeling and several opportunities to engage in guided and independent practice.
This video demonstrates how to use the set model to multiply equivalent fractions. Before students can multiple fractions they should understand the concepts of repeated addition and grouping as it is used with multiplication of whole numbers. Teachers should carefully model multiplication using the set model as students have to understand that when re-grouping the parts of the fractions, they need to keep the denominator the same. The set model is also a useful strategy for introducing how to multiply fractions that are not equivalent; so, students may benefit from multiple opportunities to practice with equivalent fractions first.
This video demonstrates how to use fraction tiles to multiply a fraction and whole number. Students should have experience with determining the fraction of a whole (2 x 2/3) before being introduced to determining the fraction of a fraction (2/3 x 3/4). Before students multiply fractions, they should understand the concepts of repeated addition and grouping as it is used with multiplication of whole numbers. Teachers can model how to create equivalent groups (such as two groups of 2/3). Students can then use skills of addition and converting improper fractions to mixed numbers to find the product.
This video demonstrates how to use fraction circles to add fractions with unlike denominators. After a teacher models how to appropriately use fraction circles to solve addition problems, students can use the tools to explore fractions with guided and independent practice.
This video demonstrates how to use the fraction tiles for add fractions with unlike denominators. Students may write the multiples for each denominator to determine the least common denominator. Fractions tiles can be used to show how to represent equivalent fractions with the least common denominator.
This video demonstrates how to use fraction tiles to model fraction addition with unit fractions that sum to 1. After a teacher models how to appropriately use fraction tiles to solve addition problems, students can use the tools to explore fractions with guided and independent practice.
