No prep lesson using a guided notes graphic organizer approximating square roots of non-perfect squares, rational & irrational numbers. Students estimate square roots and graph the approximation on a number line. Students determine two consecutive integers when squared includes their number, use a range to create a fraction, convert the fraction to a decimal and graph their estimation on the number line. Use the first two pages as guided notes and the additional pages as independent practice, bell ringers, exit tickets or a quick quiz.

Learning Focus:

• approximate the value of a non-perfect square and locate the value on a number line.
• convert fractions to decimals
• round decimals to the nearest hundredth
