Rational and Irrational Numbers
Overview
An Introduction to Rational and Irrational Numbers for Academic Coaching students, before introducing the unit in the general education curriculum classes.
Rational and Irrational Numbers
This lesson introduces my Academic Coaching students to rational and irrational numbers before they are introduced to them in their Pre-Algebra General Education Class. My aim is not for mastery, but to give students confidence when the general education curriculum introduces the material. I try to stay a week ahead of the general education teachers, so my students are more willing to participate in their general education classes when they have some prior knowledge and feeling confident.
