There are 4 sections: the basics (visualizing fractions to expressing them in simplest form), adding/subtracting, multiplying/dividing and using fractions (apply what they have learned to calculate probability, ratios & decimals). An exam after the first two and last two sections assesses the students learning. Annotated solutions are provided.
