PS.1
How can we gather evidence that students are developing a conceptual understanding and synthesizing and applying mathematical skills when making sense of problems and persevering in solving them?
PS. 2 Reason Abstractly and Quantitatively
Numbers to Words & Words to Numbers...Explain the Relationship Between Quantities
30 divided by 6
"How many 6s go into 30?"
5/6 divided by 1/6
"How many 1/6s go into 5/6?"
