How would you help them think
Additively?
Proportionally?
Part to part?
Part to whole?
What might this represent?

Ss played a game that directly used these relational rods. They now need to score the total value of the rods. For reference, dark green on top=6. How would you calculate the sum? How do you think Ss would?
