Why Fractions Are Hard β€” and How Lumi Fixes It

Fractions are the #1 math topic where kids lose confidence β€” and the research is clear on why: most instruction jumps to procedures (find a common denominator, flip and multiply) before kids understand what fractions mean. Lumi always starts with the concept. What does ΒΎ mean? How do you see it on a number line? How do equal parts work? The procedure comes after the understanding, and it sticks.

What grade does Lumi start teaching fractions?
Fractions are introduced in 2nd grade with halves, thirds, and fourths. The concept builds each year through 5th grade when kids multiply and divide fractions.
My child is in 4th grade and still confused about equivalent fractions. Where do they start?
Set the profile to 3rd grade math and work through the fractions unit from the foundation β€” then advance to 4th. Many kids need to revisit the conceptual foundation before the 4th grade procedures make sense.
