Comparing Fractions, Decimals & Percentages
This is an excellent resources that I use to challenge my 3rd grade students once we've talked about fractions, decimals, and percentages. I gives students an excellent opportunity to practice converting between the 3, using cross-multiplication skills, and ordering mixed numbers and fractions. This can also be used by 4th and 5th grade students needing a refresher. I typically use page 3 to work through with students on the whiteboard. This gives you a chance to review/explain how to convert

Teaching style
Students learn by doing.
I believe in vibrant, engaging, and colorful worksheets, but I also believe in students working together on projects and activities that allow them to experience the content for themselves.
For example, most of my graphing, measurement, and science worksheets offer a chance for students to engage with the content instead of just sitting at their desks and practicing.
