[image 1]Heidi Hunt-Ruiz, associate professor of Math at NVC; and Mary Zocchi, NVC math adjunct, recently presented a workshop on fractions recently to 3rd-5th grade NISD teachers.
Mary and Heidi teach Math 1350 and Math 1351 at NVC to prepare future elementary and middle school teachers in math topics.
They have written a packet of projects and foldables in response to their students’ learning needs. They realized some of the underlying areas that need to be strengthened the most are fractions.
