For all the vilification of Everyday Math that I've seen around here, I have to say that so far, it seems to be doing a good job of keeping fractions tied to division. My daughter has only completed third grade math, though, so there's plenty of time for it to go astray.

And like I said, I don't want anyone to think that I oppose better teaching of fractions. I just think it's valuable so the students will understand fractions better, whether or not it has anything to do with later study of algebra.
