Abstract
Fractions are an important concept used throughout advanced mathematical ideas and everyday life. Students need a solid understanding of fraction concepts, such as magnitude, equivalence, and operations. However, many students, including students with learning disabilities (LD) in mathematics, struggle with fractions. In this article, the use of multiple representations are discussed to support and teach fraction concepts to students with LD in mathematics. Multiple representations to include manipulatives, drawings, and numbers lines. Throughout the article, the use of explicit instruction to teach students with LD in mathematics how to use multiple representations to understand and solve fraction problems will be presented.
期刊介绍：
Intervention in School and Clinic is practitioner-oriented and designed to provide practical, research-based ideas to educators who work with students with severe learning disabilities and emotional/behavioral problems. Emphasis is placed on strategies and techniques that can be easily implemented in school or clinic settings and address the multifaceted needs of students with severe LD and emotional/behavioral problems. Specifically, articles should target curricular, instructional, social, behavioral, assessment, and vocational strategies and techniques and have direct application to the classroom setting.
