Summary
What if you set the stage for students to discover how to multiply fractions?
- First, we let students discover a pattern using three simple examples. They’ll work out a fourth example.
- We check the pattern and then complicate things a bit by using three new examples with products that need to be simplified.
- We rewrite our pattern to include the “simplify” step and then students practice with three examples.
- I give the solutions and then leave students with one final, even more complex fraction problem!
