Mr. Martini's Classroom: Fraction Conversion to Decimal Tenths

After learning how to convert decimals to fractions and fractions to percents, young mathematicians fill in a chart in which they convert values. Learners convert 0.50 to fraction and percent, 2/8 to a decimal and percent, and 80%...

Elevate young scientists' skills with unit conversion using the stair-step method. Detailed instructions and a neat stair-step diagram are on the first page. Four pages of practice problems follow, mostly with real-world applications....

Ours is to wonder why, not just to invert and multiply. The seventh installment of a 21-part module uses fraction models to help pupils understand why the invert-and-multiply strategy for dividing fractions works. They then work on some...

Pupils stretch their conversion math muscles with a decimals, fractions, and percents worksheet. Ten problems require learners to match the given decimal, fraction, or percent to its equivalent. 

Practice makes perfect! Skilled mathematicians can practice their skills by converting each fraction into a decimal.

Visual models support young mathematicians as they deepen their fractional number sense in this elementary math lesson plan. Using fraction circle manipulatives, children explore basic unit fractions as they develop the...

Find another way to write a fraction. Using long division, the video shows how to convert a fraction into a decimal. Learners use their knowledge of fractions to then set up the division problem. 

Rounding fractions is the focus of a six-question interactive designed to boost concept proficiency. A measured beaker's water level increases and decreases as mathematicians move the tool to represent specific fractions. Questions...

What's the proper way to convert fractions? A short video shows three quick examples of converting an improper fraction to a mixed number. Pupils practice doing their own conversions to better understand the skill.

Compare fraction models to fractions on a number line in an interactive that uses pumpkin pies as the model. Pupils look at pumpkin pie models to determine their improper fraction value. They use their knowledge to answer five questions...
