These problems were created by students at Truro Junior High School in Truro, Nova Scotia. Their teacher, Mr. Paul Dennis (pdennis@tjhs.ednet.ns.ca) had them solve the problems in the resource Middle Years Problems - 1999 and send us their solutions. We suggested that they make up some problems of their own to put on the Math Central site and these are the problems that they sent us.

This article takes a Saskatchewan grade 7 mathematics objective, from the new middle years mathematics curriculum guide, and illustrates how a personal kit of fraction strips (thought of as parts of a 'pizza') can be used to compare and order fractions. Examples from a recent research study show how 8 children organized fractional portions of their kit to create 2/3, and the interpretation of their creations illustrates different viable answers and different forms of mathematical sophistication. This type of activty can be used to challenge the traditional roles of teaching and learning in a middle years classroom.
