Teaching Secondary Math Coneptually

You are working with a middle school class that loses focus easily and over half of the students struggle with fraction concepts. Design a bridging activity linking addition and subtraction of fractions to an abstract, pencil and paper assignment. Be sure to explain the teaching sequence carefully as if leaving exact notes for a substitute teacher who has never seen or used the activities before. Include some scripting as well. I will attach the chapter notes i have taken, please review them carefully and use appropriate terminology and procedures outlined in the notes.

I have uploaded manipulative worksheets to aid you in the process of writing this essay. Some scripted language is in the notes, please use that in the essay. Message me with progress and questions.
