When should students use a calculator in mathematics? When fluency with mathematical procedures without the help of a calculator are well established, students should be able to use calculators with more complex mathematical problems, real-life applications and calculations involving very large and small numbers.

This bundle contains our 5 sets of follow me cards on the topic of Fractions Decimals and Percentages

Each pack includes 30 cards, designed to get more challenging as students progress through the questions. A recording sheet is including so students can record their solutions, and an advanced start option is available for students that wish to jump to the more challenging questions.

An answer key is also included.

The following packs are included.

• Converting Fractions, Decimals and Percentages
• Fractions Arithmetic
• Percentage of Amounts with Increasing & Decreasing
• Recurring Decimals and Fractions

This growing packet includes mini lessons on topics with common misconceptions! This is great for reteaching, extra practice, early finishers, and at home work! Students are able to walk through the steps on the reference page by themselves, use the guided practice, and then practice independently!! This utilizes the gradual release model of teaching with limited need for teacher intervention!

Level Ups provide increasing levels of challenge and rigor on critical Common Core Grade 8 math standards. Students begin at level zero, working on the pre-requisite skills needed for a standard, then level up each time they complete a task. If a student can complete level 4, both you and them know they have mastered that standard.

This Level Ups Bundle includes all 6 Level Ups activities covering every 8th grade math standard in the Expressions & Equations domain, as well as the Number Systems domain at a 10% discount. The 6 activities included are:

1. Level Ups Grade 8 Math: Solving Equations ($4.00 Value)

This is a simple project, but it adds in real life scenario of what the cost is going out to eat. Students end up shocked at the cost of going out to eat! The students pick out a restaurant of their choice (can download the menu offline), "go out to eat" with three other family members, order, determine cost, sales tax and tip for a total of going out to eat for 4 people. This could be a group project with four students going out to eat and seeing what the cost is for each. Either way, it shows their decimal skills with basic math operations and gives them a new appreciation of going out to eat!

This is all of my fraction resources that I use with my 6th graders.

This poster is intended to lay the groundwork for a very basic understanding of how Decimals work, without relying on a comparison to Fractions or Percentages at the very first hurdle. We think that a student should understand the principles of decimals in relation to numbers which are a power of 10, before comparing and contrasting them with Fractions and Percentages. This way, an understanding of fraction conversion can become even stronger later down the line.
