6th Grade Math Magic

This Jeopardy Game is used to review all of module one for 6th grade math. The game reviews equivalent ratios/fractions, converting decimals, percent and fractions, the distance formula, solving percent problems and unit rate. This activity is a good way to break up your lesson from a boring worksheet and allow the students to get excited about what they are reviewing. Students also should have a team captain who will keep score for each group. For a little extra incentive you can also give extr

Students will fill in the grid given either a percent, decimal, ratio, or fraction. Prior knowledge if required to fill out this worksheet. This falls towards the end of module 1 (ratios) for the 6th grade common core in New York State.

Given a bag of M&Ms students will create fractions, decimals and percents based on the colors they have in their bags to prove or disprove the claim made by the M&M company. I gave my students regular M&Ms, peanut M&Ms and peanut butter M&Ms based on student's ability.

This packet is based on NYS Module 1. Some questions were added and some were removed to add to the lessons that were already created. Lessons are numbered based on other modifications I have made for the rest of the original module.

Students need to rewrite 12 problems by lining up their decimal points. Problems are mixed between subtraction and addition so students need to make sure that they are paying attention. This is a great review for all students.

This worksheet was created for students to take to the grocery store with them. The worksheet includes a list of items that the fictional character "Sarah," needs for her house. She only brought $55 with her and students need to decide if she has enough money to buy everything she needs. This activity addresses adding decimals, real world application, subtracting decimals and money. It is a great activity to give before a break because it gives students multiple days to complete it.

This worksheets allows students to take a look at 3 different pots of gold and decide which is largest and smallest and then color the pots in based on decimals and fractions. This is a great way to review before a state test or just a fun way to review on Saint Patrick's Day.

Students use their knowledge of dividing decimals then color the corresponding hearts to go along with each problem.

Students use their knowledge of multiplying decimals to solve each problems and then color the corresponding sun based on whether or not the answers are odd or even. Easy review of a lesson and something bright to hang up around your classroom.
