Individuals learn how to plot rational numbers on the number line in the sixth instructional activity of a 21-part module. They identify appropriate units and determine opposites of rational numbers.

Add another strategy to the toolboxes of young mathematicians with this elementary math activity on using number lines to add and subtract fractions.

Learners solve word problems using number sense. They convert fractions to decimals and mixed numbers. Pupils determine if a given fraction is greater or less than another fraction, and order numbers on a number line.

Arrange these in order on a number line: 95% 1/3 .700 3/5 5/6 50% .200 Was that too easy? Don't worry! This app gradually gets more difficult.

Develop your pupils' understanding of fractions and their decimal equivalence using the 12th lesson in this series. Scholars learn an alternative to long division that results in converting fractions to decimals that emphasize fractional...

Fifth and sixth graders compare decimals to the place-value structure in the base-ten number system. They represent fractions as parts of unit wholes, as parts of a set, as locations on a number line, and as divisions of whole numbers....

The ninth installment of a 21-part module has pupils compare integers and rational numbers in decimal and fraction form. They match stories to number lines and compare values in the stories.

Three chapters worth of integer, fraction, and decimal problems to give you every type of question your learners need to be a successful mathematician. Thankfully the work has been done for you and this is a huge resource full...

Reinforce the concept of fractions and decimals as part of a whole with a lesson that begins with a mixed review, then goes into a three problem guided practice, and ends with a collaborative activity. The guided practice and activity...

Shoot and score with three basketball-themed lessons about decimals. Young mathematicians compare game statistics, make trash can hoops, and play a data spinner game to practice identifying digits and values within decimal numbers.

Sixth graders practice converting a fraction into a decimal and a percent. They explain relationships among rational numbers. They order and compare whole numbers, fractions (including mixed numbers), and decimals using a variety of...

Help mathematicians convert fractions to decimals and vice versa through these exercise sets. First, they write out nine fractions as decimals. This is really a practice in place value, as all the denominators here are 10. One of them...

Infuse your unit on fractions, decimals, and operations with a thorough module about rational numbers. With a teaching guide, learner examples, templates for instruction, and lesson rationale, the module is a solid way to...

Create your own fraction kits by folding and labeling paper using fraction vocabulary. Learners then work in groups to use these in comparing and sequencing both whole numbers and fractions. They also create unit cubes and develop an...

In a writing prompt, learners are asked to check the calculation of a decimal exponent without a calculator. Use as an opener or assessment after studying fractional exponents. Requires a strong understanding of exponents and roots to...

Straight from the pages of a math textbook, this three-lesson series introduces young mathematicians to the world of integers. Starting with a definition of integers and their applications in the real world, this resource goes on to...

Mathematicians make representations of fractional parts of a whole and learn that a decimal is another way to represent a fractional part. Understanding is extended by comparing and ordering fractions and decimals on a number line. This...

In this fractions and decimals worksheet, students put the fraction and decimal on the number-line and then compare them using the correct symbol. Students complete 10 problems.

One of the better presentations on teaching decimals is here for you. In it, learners practice identifying tenths and hundredths by looking at grids of 100 squares that have been shaded. Number lines are also used to give pupils a...

Investigate negative exponents of-ten. Pupils use the pattern of increasing powers of 10 to determine negative powers of 10. The scholars write the powers in expanded and product forms and make the connection to exponents using a...

Fifth graders determine how to convert fractions, decimals, and percents. In this conversion lesson, 5th graders use an on-line applet to practice making these conversions. They review how to make the conversions in a whole class lesson...
