Clip 12/41: Standard 3: Construct Arguments & Critiques Using Fractions Part 3
Overview
Students…can listen or read the arguments of others, decide whether they make sense, and ask useful questions to clarify or improve the arguments.
Michelle Kious works with her 5th grade students on understanding multiple representations of mixed numbers. Throughout the lesson, her students listen attentively to each other (in a whole group, in pairs, and in small groups), making use of sentence frames modeling academic vocabulary. While this mathematical practice is evident throughout the lesson, in the second half of these clips pairs of students work to develop and challenge each other's thinking.
