Conceptual Understanding of Fractions - UCI Wiki hosted by EEE
Title Conceptual Understanding of Fractions All Grade Levels [Current Contributors: June Choi, Gina Lee, Jenny Nguyen, Doris Ni, and Poonam Patel; Previous Contributors: Kaitlin Franks, Jane Kim, Lori Labuzetta, Cynthia Leon, and Cheryl Panado] August 2008 Cognition and Learning Background Fractions are a major concept that students are first introduced to in second grade. Why Teach Conceptually It is important for teachers to ensure that students have a firm grasp on the concepts of fractions.
