DECIMALS

money amounts []  a series of games that identify value of decimals some games are simple recognition others require you to work with decimal numbers. Has a range of levels I only looked at low suitable for entry level []  progressing towards level 3 (level 4 thousandths) a series of games that require the children to place decimals in order. There are 3 levels, level 1 involves tenths, level 2 hundredths and level 3 thousandths []  This activity provides students with a fun, game context in which to practice their decimal number ordering skills.

They will draw on their knowledge of decimal place value, addition and subtraction of decimals, and writing decimals in words and symbols. <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000099; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">[] <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 9pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> Progressing towards level 4 - In this activity we use a grid to help students think of different names for the same fraction. As they become familiar with a hundredths grid, they will find it easier to make connections between fractions and decimals <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000099; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">[] <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 9pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> Progressing towards level 4 - To practice counting forwards and backwards with decimal numbers. This is a whole class game but can be played in small group situations where they can take turns to call the numbers. Both cards can be played at the same time which caters for differing students’ needs <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000099; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">[] <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 9pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> Progressing towards level 4 - The purpose of this activity is to give students practise in converting decimals into fractions.
