Tips for parents

• Encourage your child to show their work. In grades 3 to 5 the method matters as much as the answer.
• Ask your child to explain one answer out loud. Talking through Compare Fractions shows you where the thinking is solid.
• Set a timer for ten minutes and stop when it rings. Short, regular practice beats one long session.
