This resource includes 18 days of fraction choral counting. This is a routine that I used with 4th graders to build number sense with fractions. It is super engaging, and leads to great conversation. I used this paired with BrainingCamp, and had a student adding/taking away fraction bars on a number line to help students visualize. You can learn more about choral counting online if you have not heard of this routine! I did this whole group.
