We came across these puzzles a few years ago. The premise is that you have a bunch of questions and matching answers. Students have cards that have either an answer or question on the edge. They then have to match up the edges that have the pairs of questions and answers and eventually it will make a shape. In this case the activity is matching up different representations of the same number (Decimals, Percents and Fractions). We found these puzzles originally on the Mr Barton Maths site…

In Grade 4, we have been investigating the relationship between fractions and decimal numbers. As mathematicians and artists, we started off this inquiry by creating pixel art using Google Sheets by 'filling' squares out of a 10 by 10 table. Once we counted the number of squares of a certain colour to find out the fractional value, we converted the value into a decimal number! (example: seven squares purple out of a hundred squares = 7/100 = 0.07) After this task, we started working with…

I feel like it takes students all school year and then some to remember how to convert between fractions, decimals and percents. In Texas, we start with generating equivalent numbers in 6th grade: the time when some teachers and students think math manipulatives and models are no longer needed. I strongly disagree. I struggled with math in school (which I believe is what makes me love teaching math now) and I don't ever remember working with math manipulatives or math models. No fraction…

Students love this decimal game for converting fractions to deicmals. Engaging and challenging, this is an excellent way for students to practice converting and learn common fraction decimal equivalences.

A free digital math activity in google slides where students will identify equivalent forms of numbers from models. Students will right in fractions, decimals and percents.

I'm spending the beginning of the summer becoming more and more familiar with the CCSS for Math. Fourth grade has a LOT of fractions, so I'm looking at what kinds of manipulatives we want need for the fall. We don't have much, and we have $$ to spend for next year. Any suggestions? I especially like shopping through EAI Education and have already found a lot that our fourth grade team can use. While I was thinking about it, I thought I'd take the time to go through an activity from this past…
