Forms of Decimals
This worksheet is a review of the standard form, expanded form and the word form of decimal numbers. After you print it, you need to fill in the answer key, or delete that box. I've used this as an extension post-seatwork and as a math station. Having the answer key allows students to grade their own work.

Visual Models to find Equivalent Fractions
This interactive note sheet, intended to be cut and glued into a math journal, shows three different visual methods to finding common denominators. I intended to be a reference for more difficult common denominators. Also, I used it as a review after teaching all the methods, to make sure we had a solid model of the visual methods in our notes. Using colored pencils is a nice touch!

Additional biographical information
The name "Stuff and Things," is a tribute to my first 5th grade class. We discussed the need to be more descriptive and avoid saying 'stuff and things' in our writing and speaking and then it became our inside joke. So, since my creations do not fit nicely into one box, they are stuff and things.
I currently teach K-8 STEM, allowing me a great big swath of creative freedom. I've taught middle school science, 5th grade and 2nd grade. I started on TPT when we all only gave each other free resources and I loved the genuine sharing for our students benefits. Message me if price is an issue (it does add up!) and your school will not reimburse.
