This worksheet aims to enhance students' understanding of the connection between decimals and fractions using visual models. It emphasizes place value and demonstrates how decimals can be expressed as fractions through tools like base-ten blocks, grids, and other visual aids.

Students will receive various decimal numbers (up to the hundredths or thousandths place) and will represent these decimals as fractions. Each problem includes a visual model to illustrate the relationship between the decimal and its corresponding fraction (for example, 0.25 represented as 25 out of 100 shaded squares on a grid, illustrating the fraction 25/100).

Key skills developed through this worksheet include:

• Grasping place value (tenths, hundredths, thousandths, etc.)
• Converting decimals to fractions
• Utilizing visual models to understand decimal-fraction equivalency

This resource is perfect for students establishing foundational skills in decimal-to-fraction conversion, fostering a deeper comprehension of how decimals integrate into the whole number system.

This resource is a self checking task card scavenger hunt that works on adding and subtracting multidigit numbers up to the hundred thousands place. This resource could be done by students independently or within a group to supplement classroom content, practice for classroom assessments or state tests, or used as used as a review. Students will love the challenge and stay engaged in the task!

Students can begin at any task card; they must write the task card letter in the circle in the first box on the student work page. They complete the equation on that task card and record their work in the box on the work page. They will know that their answer is correct by finding that specific answer in the "Previous Answer" section on another task card. That one would be the next task card in their sequence and they would repeat the process until they have completed all task cards. The last task card should lead them back to the original one that they started with. **If their answer is NOT found on any of the task cards under the "Previous Answer" sections, students will know that their answer is incorrect and they need to try again.

Step by step directions, (with pictures), are included as well as an answer key with every possible correct sequence that students could have depending on which task card they start with.

Let your students practice while having fun with this engaging no-prep and self-checking place value activity. Students will solve 20 problems (5 digits, with decimals) using Google Sheets. I used it as a sub-plan in sixth grade and the kids loved it. As they correctly answer the questions a mystery picture will be revealed.

Solutions are included in the second sheet.

Suitable for IB MYP Middle Years Programme.

Looking for a fun way to engage your students while practicing place value skills? The Case of the Cursed Candy Math Mystery is a Halloween-themed math activity that will have your students solving puzzles, cracking codes, and practicing essential math skills—all while trying to stop a Halloween monster from turning the town's children into real monsters!

What’s the Mystery?

It’s Halloween in the spooky town of Mathigan, and something is terribly wrong with the candy being handed out. When the children eat it, they are transformed into real Halloween monsters! One of the town’s monsters has cursed the candy, and it's up to your students to solve the case. Using math skills, students will work through five clues to narrow down a list of ten suspects and discover who is behind the curse.

Skills Covered:

This mystery focuses on key place value skills aligned with 4th-grade standards:

• Finding the Value of a Digit in multi-digit numbers
• Comparing Multi-Digit Numbers to determine larger or smaller values
• Adding and Subtracting Multi-Digit Numbers with and without regrouping up to the hundred thousands
• Rounding Numbers up to the nearest hundred thousand

How It Works:

Students begin by reading the backstory of the cursed candy mystery, where they learn about the strange happenings in Mathigan and the list of 10 possible suspects, each with unique motives and magical items. Then, they solve math problems to unlock clues. Each correctly solved problem helps eliminate suspects from the list, bringing them closer to identifying the culprit behind the curse.

What’s Included:

• Introductory Backstory: A captivating narrative sets the stage for the mystery and introduces the town and the list of suspects, each with a reason to curse the candy.
• 10 Suspects: Students will investigate ten Halloween-themed suspects, each with a motive, a magical item used to make the curse, and an item that can break it.
• 5 Clue Sheets: Each clue sheet provides math problems that students must solve to gather more information. The math problems include place value comparisons, multi-digit addition and subtraction, and rounding to the nearest hundred thousand.
• Answer Keys: Clear answer keys for all clues ensure teachers can quickly check student work and guide them in the right direction.
• Flexible Use: This mystery can be used as a whole group, small group, or independent activity. It’s perfect for review before tests, early finishers, or as a fun, educational activity leading up to Halloween.

Why You’ll Love It:

This Halloween math mystery combines the excitement of a spooky story with important place value practice, making it a perfect way to keep students engaged while learning. The hands-on, puzzle-solving nature of this activity will capture their imaginations and provide opportunities for both individual and collaborative learning.
