Workshop Title: Fractions to Functions (4-12)

Date: 3/10/2026

Time: 8:30 am – 3 pm

Location: Rutgers University Hill Center, Busch Campus Piscataway

Facilitator(s):  Pam Brett and Anne Paoletti Bayna

Description: This professional learning opportunity for grades 4-12 math teachers delves into the connections between fractions and algebraic thinking through interactive, hands-on experiences. Participants will engage with model-based, inquiry-driven lessons using manipulatives, visual models, and technology. Teachers will collaborate to co-create classroom-ready strategies, with time to share ideas and resources during “expert hours.” The workshop is designed to build a network of math educators who can support and build on each other’s ideas. Two virtual follow-up sessions will provide additional opportunities to reflect, share successes, and refine teaching practices.)
