Overview

Session 7 used a fractions-comparison task to explore mathematics, student thinking, and teaching practice. It also continued the work on learning from and improving the use of recordings in public space.

This session continues to explore these ideas through the analysis and narration of a fractions-of-an-area task. The session also introduces a checklist for planning, using, and reflecting on the use of public recording space.
