Learning Fractions Using LEGO Bricks
Student Edition

Dr. Shirley Disseler
This is the student edition to accompany Teaching Fractions Using LEGO® Bricks and should be used in conjunction with that book.

In Learning Fractions Using LEGO® Bricks: Student Edition, Dr. Shirley Disseler has developed activities that work to help students learn the basics of fractions, using a common toy available in most classrooms and homes—LEGO® bricks!

Many students struggle with learning fractions. Teachers struggle, too, in finding ways to teach the concepts. LEGO® bricks help students learn the mathematical concepts through modeling.
In this book, the hands-on activities using LEGO® bricks help students learn how to:

  • recognize fractions
  • use the vocabulary of fractions
  • define a whole and represent parts of different sized wholes
  • add and subtract with like and unlike denominators
  • represent and understand mixed numbers and find equivalent fractions

The book starts with the most basic concepts and focuses on a specific topic in each chapter. Most students learn these concepts between grades 2 – 6.
​
Using LEGO® bricks to model math provides a universal language. Children everywhere recognize this manipulative. It’s fun to learn when you’re using LEGO® bricks!
