This study has been carried out to determine the 3rd grade students’ (n=113) learning difficulties in pointing the fractions on number line and to find out the misconceptions lying behind common mistakes. For this purpose, we have tried to determine learning difficulties in matching fractions with p...

description This study has been carried out to determine the 3rd grade students’ (n=113) learning difficulties in pointing the fractions on number line and to find out the misconceptions lying behind common mistakes. For this purpose, we have tried to determine learning difficulties in matching fractions with points on the number line and misconceptions by using the “Diagnosis test” method on the 3rd grade students (n=113). In this matching, the learning difficulties and misconceptions these students encounter have been determined and some proposals have been developed to come over these difficulties.
