"This was a great supplemental add-on to my lesson in Pre-Algebra. I supplemented this by making an actual box within a box etc. and had the students physically sort in the the boxed which nested within each other. This really helped them to see how numbers were related."

This was a great supplemental add-on to my lesson in Pre-Algebra. I supplemented this by making an actual box within a box etc. and had the students physically sort in the the boxed which nested within each other. This really helped them to see how numbers were related.

This resource is awesome! I love how you incorporated irrational numbers as well. My students enjoyed sorting these numbers and made it a race to see who could sort them the quickest. This venn diagram is inside my students journals to refer back to at anytime.

CCSS8.NS.A.1

Know that numbers that are not rational are called irrational. Understand informally that every number has a decimal expansion; for rational numbers show that the decimal expansion repeats eventually, and convert a decimal expansion which repeats eventually into a rational number.
