A quick visit to my TPT Store and you will notice multiple sets of decimal cards. You may wonder if that's the only thing I teach. The reality is that my students look forward to these monthly themed cards almost as much as I love the quick review and conversations that occur during the activities. A few years ago we were days away from end of the year testing, and I pulled out a set of decimal cards. The students paired up to play a game of war, and it was clear that some students still had some misconceptions about comparing decimal values. By the end of the activity, the class was back on track. It occurred to me that the multiple use cards should be in our routine more frequently. To add some variety, the seasonal cards just make it more engaging. Each set of cards includes a rounding activity to supplement the war game. To wrap it up, students order the cards from least to greatest or greatest to least. I give 2-3 students a set of cards, and early finishers can help check the cards after groups put them in order.
Let's start with a FREEBIE...
Rounding money...
The cards in this pack give the word form or fraction for students to write as a decimal.
We will complete the Decimal Unit in November so this set will be a perfect review in December.
