Here are some Frame, Focus and Follow-up suggestions for using this video in a math lesson.

What is Frame, Focus and Follow-up?

Frame: If we have an apple and we want to share it among four people, we can just cut it into four equal pieces. But what if we want to share a bag of peanuts among four people? How would you go about doing that? What mathematical operations would you use?

Focus: During this segment, watch how Jackie insures that the sharing of the candy among Buzz, Delete, and Harold is done in a fair way. How does she start off? Notice what she calls her method.
