This is a great power point that I use with my whole class. There are plenty of examples to practice rounding decimals and word problems too. There is room on the slides to create and write the steps with your students. The sum it up is a group activity which requires students to use menus to place mock orders for take out. They can estimate the amount they spend and then calculate the actual. I get the take out menus from local restaurants. They love this activity!! Common Core Aligned:

This chart is great and can be displayed on your white board or smart board. I usually print out a copy of the slide for the students to write on so they can keep it as part of their notes.

Experience

I currently have 20 years of classroom experience. My certifications include Elementary Education and Special Education. For the past twelve years I have been teaching 6th grade math in a middle school. Before math I taught all core area subjects for sixth, fifth, and fourth grade.

Teaching style

I love teaching! I use a variety of teaching styles in my classroom including direct instruction, guided instruction, exploration lessons, partnering, cooperative group work, neighbor checks, pair shares, carousel activities, stations, centers, and project based learning. When I create power points or flip charts I intend on writing on them and completing problems and notes together with my class. All of my products are used in my classroom before I post them on TpT.
