Description
Teach or review comparing decimals with this engaging math wheel for notes and practice.
What is a math wheel? It's a type of 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, if desired
Students can keep these graphic organizers in their interactive notebooks all year as a reference sheet/study tool. The wheels are excellent for reviewing concepts as part of your test prep!
- You can even enlarge the math wheels and use them as posters or anchor charts!
The 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)
- ‘Fill-in’ notes, to help control 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 resource:
1) Notes sections and examples (notes are just suggestions, and you can alter them or use other examples that better fit your instruction if you’d like)
2) Guided or independent practice: 10 comparing decimals problems in the pattern around the circle
3) Coloring/doodling opportunity: students can color the background pattern, as well as the headings and doodle arrows
Coloring the background:
- Students don’t HAVE to color at all during instructional time….coloring the background could be an ‘early finisher’ activity, center 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.
