    Date: Apr 18, 2013
    Event: 2013 Annual Meeting Denver
    Speaker: Bradford Burkman

    Under the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics (CCSSM), which topics related to fraction addition will elementary teachers cover? Which skills can high school teachers hope that students will have already practiced? Within and beyond CCSSM, how can we teach addition of ratios of integers with methods that extend to ratios of polynomials? We will look at various perspectives.
