This hands-on activity always students to compare and organize rational numbers (the clothes) along a number line. The numbers include fractions, decimals, and percents and increase in difficultly throughout the activity.

These are a set of 13 open response questions that can used throughout the school year to help student improve their justification writing skills.  These questions use a claim and reasoning format.  The questions vary in the degree of difficulty purposefully to be used throughout a school year.  There are a few warm up questions to help students get used to the format.

This is a task created to focus on converting numbers between fractions, decimals, and percents. Students will create their own drawing and then use number sense skills to determine the area of each color they incorporated into their drawing compared to the whole. Students are asked to give their answer as a fraction, decimal, and percent. This activity could be appropriate for 5th, 6th, or a review for 7th grade. Task is set up as a word doc and is editable for you specific students needs.

Students will apply number sense knowledge and percentages to solve real world problems.
