dc.description.abstract |
Math Education has been a major topic of debate within the education sphere for
years now, especially since the introduction of the Common Core State Standards.
These standards have been met with mixed reviews. This research begins by analyzing
the standards concerning fractions in third, fourth, and fifth grade and determining how
it fits with the four domains of mathematical understanding these.
It then goes on to an in-depth look at Eureka Math curriculum concerning
fractions looking at both its alignment to the Common Core State Standards and its
contribution to developing conceptual understanding, one of the four domains of
mathematical understanding. Eureka Math was chosen, because it is a free curriculum
available for download online, which makes it a lucrative resource for teachers. |
