Help your students order rational numbers (decimals, fractions, and mixed numbers) with this fun, engaging, and self-checking digital activity! For each problem, students

determine if the given set of values is ordered from least to greatest. Students use their answer to determine if the given statement is true or false. Students will justify their answer by explaining and comparing the given values. Includes 12 slides in all.

When assigned as “make a copy for each student” in Google Classroom, students can delete the circle with the task card number in the upper left-hand corner to reveal the answer and check their work. Students love being able to get instant feedback on their understanding! If their answer is incorrect, encourage students to go back and check their work/redo their work!

This activity can also be printed and used as station work. Just print and laminate or insert into sheet protectors and students can write directly on the activity.

This activity aligns well with:

CCSS: 

• 6.NS.7: Understand ordering and absolute value of rational numbers.
• 7.NS.2d: Convert a rational number to a decimal using long division; know that the decimal form of a rational number terminates in 0s or eventually repeats

NGLS:

• NY-6.NS.7: Understand ordering and absolute value of rational numbers.
• NY-7.NS.2d: Convert a fraction to a decimal using long division; know that the decimal form of a rational number terminates in 0s or eventually repeats

PREREQUISITE FOR:

• 7.NS.1.b: Understand p + q as the number located a distance |q| from p, in the positive or negative direction depending on whether q is positive or negative. Show that a number and its opposite have a sum of 0 (are additive inverses). Interpret sums of rational numbers by describing real-world contexts.
