The quizzes today weren't as bad as I thought they would be (but maybe I shouldn't speak so soon.. let me get back to this when I get it back graded). I'm a little concerned about the next quiz but I think it's because I need to practice the counting strategy and derived fact. I thought it was really interesting how you can ease into fractions as an extension of partitive division. It makes SO much sense to do this and it think makes it so much easier for the students.
I also didn't realize that it was measurement that was making the multiplication and division word problems more difficult. All I knew was that while I was trying to identify the problem type, I had to think about them a little more than the first worksheet.
