The power point provides a chart to organize key words and phrases for multiplication, division, addition, subtraction, powers, and equals. The power point was made to teach a whole class. The slides have plenty of room to write your students responses and complete examples toget

This is great power point to use with your class. It focuses on how to change an improper fraction to a mixed number and a mixed number into an improper fraction. There are guided examples and practice problems for students to complete independently while you circulate the room to check for understanding.

Students love talking about the different blood types-nice connection to science class. When asked how we can compare these results accurately students should come up with finding a common denominator. Then with the class you can change each fraction to an equivalent reviewing the process. Word problems, a section of practice,

This power point has three Number Properties Quizzes I use in my class to see if my students can identify the following properties: Commutative, Associative, Distributive, Identity, zero and Inverse. You can print them and hand them out for students to keep in their notes or be used as a quick quiz. I love to quickly flash them up on my board and quickly quiz them aloud.
