Abstract

This lesson study experience occurred within a partnership between mathematics educators and four middle school mathematics teachers of ELLs. The lesson focus was addition of fractions of unlike denominators. The students were given opportunities to think individually and then work with a partner using fraction bars to explain and justify their solutions.
