What I do with the contestants:
I take four of the high ability math kids twice
a week during Math RTI time. We learn a
variety of what we can do with fractions. I had them take a pre-test
and at the end, a post-test, to see how much
they improved.
The Contestants Learned:• Naming whole numbers as
fractions• Naming a fraction based on
rectangles• Drawing fractions using
rectangles• How to make a fraction
improper• Turning a decimal into a
fraction• Turning a fraction into a
decimal
What did they get on the pre/post
test?

What I learned:This whole self-selected
project has lead me to get to know these students
personally. I get to see them grow through learning. It
makes me realize that they are striving to become better
in math. They seem so passionate learning
something out of the ordinary. It’s a challenge for
them and I see that they love it.
