“Is carrying a 9 heavier than carrying a 1?!” Math teachers laughing and learning about the importance of mathematical language at the @ATMIM_Updates March Mathness conference! #iteachmath #regrouping

When I ask this question, I often get the same 3 answers: 1/8 1/7 "It can't be a fraction...the parts aren't the same size!" The answers I hear tell me about the experiences Ss have had with fractions so far...and where the discussions could go next. #iteachmath #HRCEmath #mtbos
