Description
Comparing decimals notes are more engaging with this creative but structured math wheel note-taking format! This wheel focuses on comparing decimals to the hundredths place.
- Students take notes, use color to help with memory, and complete practice problems found around the wheel.
What is a math wheel? It's a graphic organizer where students can:
- Take notes inside the math wheel
- Use color, drawing, and doodling to help create memory triggers
- Complete practice problems in the pattern around the wheel, and
- Color the background pattern
Students can keep the math wheels in their interactive notebooks all year as a personal anchor chart/reference sheet.
Sections of the Comparing Decimals Wheel include:
1) <. >, =
2) Compare Place Values
3) Use Models
4) Use Number Lines
This easy-prep comparing decimals resource includes:
1) THREE versions of the student wheel
- ‘Open’ for students to write notes (this version is most flexible, allowing you to phrase the notes as you’d like and use additional examples if you want to); you could have students add an additional example in the center circle
- ‘Fill-in’ notes, to help control student use of space
- Pre-filled notes; answers to examples and practice problems are NOT on this version
⭐️Each version comes with a patterned background and with no pattern in the background.
2) Teacher key/wheel with completed notes and examples
3) Colored sample of wheel
4) PowerPoint file with two editable templates ~ you can add text to make your own math wheels, if you’d like (for classroom use only - not commercial use).
Features of this easy-to-use comparing decimals resource:
1) Notes sections and examples (notes are just suggestions, and you can alter them or use additional examples if you’d like)
2) Guided or independent practice: 12 problems in the pattern around the circle
- You can give students a color key for these problems, for easy checking. One is suggested in the resource notes.
3) Coloring/doodling opportunity: students can color the background pattern, as well as the headings and doodle arrows, however they like.
Coloring the background, if you use the patterned versions:
- Students don’t HAVE to color at all during instructional time….coloring the background could be an ‘early finisher’ activity, homework, etc.
- Students don’t need to color every section of the background – part of their coloring pattern could be to leave sections white.
- Students could color sections with patterns instead of solids – maybe polka dots in one section and squiggly lines in another.
- This coloring part is just a chance to be creative and enjoy the stress-relief coloring can provide:-)
⭐️This wheel can also be found in the 4th Grade Math Wheel Bundle.
What teachers are saying about math wheels:
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"My students loved the wheel notes and so do I! I think it is such a creative and different way to take guided notes."
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"My students absolutely love using the wheel as notes. It makes it easy for them to find the information when they need it and they can kind of doodle as a writing so they don’t get bored."
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"I love these math wheels!! I love using guided notes and these are fun and easy to use. The kids really like them and actually use them and refer back to them. Totally worth the money and a time saver!"
