The fraction support materials cabinet has had a major overhaul
since the last time I gave you a tour of this area. The
traditional materials are still as they were, but the hardware
drawers that hold all of the additional goodies have changed a
lot. From left to right, the top row contains the following: -
numerators, 1-10 printed on large cards. - denominators, 1-10
printed on large cards. These are the same as the numerators.
They could be in one drawer labeled "numerators AND
denominators" but this is my sneaky way of reenforcing the
vocabulary - fraction bars, cut from black construction paper) -
match the fraction, a set of cards for matching the number form
of a fraction to various visual representations - fraction dice
- blank tickets, Most of my cabinets have a "blank tickets"
drawer that all get lots of use. I use these whenever I give any
presentation so that the work is done in front of the child. The
boys use them a lot too for making their own work From left to
