@superteacherguy: What is your GoTo method to get students to see what is happening when the numbers in a fraction change? How much time does your student spend with concrete fraction models? True understanding of fractions is extremely important when moving forward in math. @Torlam #fractions #equivalentfractions #mathlesson #fractionlesson #numbersense #elementarymath
the problem is the school doesn’t use textbooks with examples anymore, so parents who didn’t learn new math don’t know how to help kids with homework. They just send home worksheets. Its asinine.

Or? How about teaching it by using a tape measure and teaching kids a practical skill. I've seen finish carpenters and pipe fitters that run circles around a math teacher.

There’s no “new math”. Just different ways to understand it.

Man new math goes a long way to get the same answer why do you want to make math harder and longer

From a person who was forced to keep up and couldn't because of Dyscalculia I could barely understand the old way. This new way lost me completely.

in 90s Russia they tought us both. "nothing new under the sun". don't say one is better then the other, different kids will understand better one way over the other. don't force a round peg into a squ

here's what you're missing out on "17 extra steps to get the same answer as 3 steps"

Old math all day show them one way. The more ways you show it the more you confuse them.

This just seems more confusing and why children are not as good at math nowadays

Engineer here with over 40 years of work experience…stick with “old” math…or what we STEM people call Math.

I tell my HS students who still struggle with "new math," we can count apples and bananas, not banapples. Fractions need to count the same cuts to +/-

If you make children learn their multiplication tables by 3rd grade, they will not have to do this silly stuff. They’ll be able to see it in their head. Larger numbers they’ll figure out the same way
