This ressource contains 52 cards and has enough material for 13 rounds if you play it like a classic game of Memory. Each round has:

• a percentage card,
• a fraction card,
• a decimal card and
• an image card.

There are so many ways your students can benefit from playing with these cards! Here are some ways I've used them in my own classroom.

• Print and cut all cards and make as many copies as you'll need for the number of groups/teams you'll be creating. Have your students work in groups of 3-6 playing a classic game of "Memory" where they'll need to find the pairs.
• Using just one form (drawing, percentage, or decimal number), pass them out to your students and have them get in line from least to greatest, or from greatest to least without talking!
• Using only two forms, pass out one card to each student. You'll only want to do this activity if you have an even number of students. Have your students try to find their "matching partner."
• Have your students play a game of "Headbanz" by holding their card up to their forehead without seeing it. They'll have to ask their partner questions to narrow down what's on their head! They might ask questions like "Am I a percentage? Am I a decimal number? Am I a fraction? Am I bigger than a half? Am I smaller than a half?" etc.
• I've also passed out 2 random cards to each student and have had them create a written math problem using what they got on their card, and then passing it to a friend to solve.
• You can also place one form for each time around your classroom on the walls and distribute the rest to your students. Have them run around the class finding their corresponding equivalent.

Whichever way you choose to use these cards, I keep them on hand for months while we work through decimals, fractions, percentages and place value. They're an "on-the-fly" activity for me - and I often leave it for substitute teachers as well.

Don't forget to have fun!
