As long as we are creating, we are cultivating meaning.
- Brené Brown
The phrase representational fluency describes when seeing one thing causes us to picture that thing in a variety of contexts. It is very important in math!
For example, consider the idea of hundredths! We know so many contexts for this idea!
Below is a table with two columns. Try matching the ten variations of "47 hundredths" in the left column with their contexts in the right column. How fast can you match all ten?
