A way that it can be used in a math lesson is to have students draw out fractions and learn about them.

This will prevent competition among students, and it won't make students feel bad about where they are at and what they are struggling with. Students have a variety of readiness levels, and GeoGebra recognizes and works with that.

On page 377 of the textbook, it states that "circles are an effective visual for adding and subtracting fractions." GeoGebra integrates the use of modeling because students are able to see the actual image of what a fraction looks like and helos to differentiate between the sizes of different pieces. The number line available in GeoGebra shows students how to estimate and then explain how they added by the use of drawing the fraction circles. I personally have used GeoGebra in other math classes and I think it is a user friendly tool.

-Rachel Kessler]]> 2022-10-17 19:19:07 UTC https://padlet.com/skbaile/n8q75c6g31xd9wsu/wish/2343864048 rkessle https://padlet.com/skbaile/n8q75c6g31xd9wsu/wish/2343865786 Grade level- 3rd grade 

3rd grade is when students get a basic understanding of fractions. Through GeoGebra you can use visuals to teach fractions

You'll want to create a post for presentation and one for lesson plan. Then review misconceptions.]]> 2022-10-24 18:28:30 UTC https://padlet.com/skbaile/n8q75c6g31xd9wsu/wish/2354157732 rkessle https://padlet.com/skbaile/n8q75c6g31xd9wsu/wish/2375847667 Common Core State standard for 3rd grade math with fractions-

Numbers and operations of fractions-
Develop understanding of fractions as numbers
Standard is- 3.NF.A.1- Understand a fraction 1/b as the quantity formed by 1 part when a whole is partitioned into b equal parts; understand a fraction a/b as the quantity formed by a parts of size 1/b.

We are looking into using ScreenCastify, or Camtasia. We are going to download both and see which works the best for us.

However, the book is using GeoGebra for symmetry and as a measurement tool. However, the shapes drawn in GeoGebra can be used to divide the shapes and represent fractions.

Circular Fraction Pieces are the most commonly used area model. The circular model reflects the part-whole concept of fractions and helps students see the relative size of a part of the whole object." 
So going along with this GeoGebra allows us to create shapes to have students partition into fractions. Visual tools are key when introducing fractions.

The first common misconceptions is that the Numerator and denominator are separate numbers. Students don't see the two numbers that make up the fraction as a number. 

The second common misconception is that fractional parts don't need to be equal-sized. Students partition the figure into unequal parts. 

The third common misconception is that Fractional parts must be the same shape. When actually when showing fractions in shape they can be any shape as long as they are equal. 

The fourth common misconception is that fractions that have large denominators are bigger. For example, a student thinks that 1/5 is smaller than 1/10 because 5 is less than 10.
