3.NF.2 Fractions on Number Lines

Students are refreshing on the 3.NF.2 Fractions on a Number Line skill! I found this FANTASTIC
video to reteach this standard! Students are also linking learning about fractions on a number line to measuring with a ruler where fractions represent a fraction which is less than a WHOLE number.
Watch and refresh your learning!!

FUN TYPING SKILL TUTORIAL
This website will really help students with their keyboarding skills!! I used it last year with my students and they LOVED it!!
Students will be expected to type some essays on their PARCC tests coming in March, so this would be great practice for them to get familiar with the keyboard!
