There are two sets of Recording Sheets (Numbers 1-16 and 17-32). Students have a choice between the scaffolded (to elicit the desired response) and blank sectioned. An answer key is provided to have students independently check their answers. Prior to having students work on the cards, work-out similar sample questions on the board to familiarise students with the question types.
**********************************************************************
SUGGESTED USE
→ Small group rotations (cards may be rotated among small groups of students)
→ Math Centres
→ Early Finishers
→ Morning Work

Game of Scoot:
There are many variations to the game. Here’s one: Lay cards around the classroom. When the teacher calls ‘scoot’ students pick up a card and write their response on the provided Recording Sheet. Students can only move when ‘scoot’ is called out. If the student does not finish solving the problem on a card, he/she can continue to spend more time on it, but must wait till the teacher calls out ‘scoot’. You can also have this as a silent activity where students move around quietly solving all the task cards without the teacher calling out ‘scoot’.
At the culmination of the activity, project the cards on the interactive whiteboard and discuss the answers with the class. Alternatively, place answer sheets at a Centre for students to self-check.

Give your students the experience of solving problems on the topic of Ratio and Proportion with this challenging pack of 54 questions. Students will convert between different units of measurement and read and solve a diverse selection of problems.
SECTIONS INCLUDED:
♦ 24 warm-up problems involving conversion of units from metres to centimetres, dollars to cents, hours to minutes and seconds, kilograms to grams, centimetres to millimetres, litres to millilitres, kilometres to meters,
♦ 30 Word Problems that include a diverse selection of problems targeting differentiation. The ‘Work with the Teacher’ pages help familiarise students with the working-out of the problem so students are able to attempt the ‘Work with a Partner’ pages either with a partner or independently. These pages adopt the same approach to solving the problem similar to the ‘Work with the Teacher’ pages. The word problems are also similar, just featuring different digits to reinforce problem-solving strategies and set up all students for success. The ‘Work with the Teacher and a Partner’ pages would be more suitable for students willing to take on more of a challenge.
♦ Detailed answer key for all problems that can be projected on an interactive whiteboard for explicit teacher explanation.
******************************************************************
I am confident your students will have more confidence in solving a diverse range of Ratio problems after completion of this mini unit. All the best for the academic year!

This resource will teach your students to simplify ratios that have decimal numbers by multiplying by the powers of ten to work with simplification of whole numbers. Also included is a fun Math Lib activity to reinforce taught content.
This resource will provide your students with a thorough understanding on the concept of simplifying ratios of decimal numbers. The templates are designed to be kid-friendly with cool kids clip-art and pleasant-to-read font to motivate students. Material that could otherwise prove daunting is presented in a simple easy-to-understand way.
SECTIONS INCLUDED:
♦ Booklet Cover (for student)
♦ Anchor Chart (colour and blackline) on Simplifying Ratios with decimal numbers.
♦ Simplifying decimal number ratios: 33 problems
♦ Simplifying decimal number ratios (math LIB) Recording Sheet.
♦ Simplifying decimal number ratios (math LIB) 10 Task Cards. (2 on a page) colour
and Blackline
♦ Simplifying decimal number ratios (math LIB) 10 blackline Task Cards on a single
page for students to glue in their notebooks as reference.
MATH LIB ACTIVITY:
My students really enjoyed this activity – I’m sure your students will too! I cut out and laminated the ten task cards. I then tacked them to the wall with Blu-Tac (this way cards don’t get lost if they were left on students’ desks – it also gets students up and moving), Students then write the ratio to solve on their recording sheet, simplify it and look for their answer from the list of options. They write the word against the selected option in the ‘fill in the blanks’ section. The end result is a spooky message. You will find that this is a far more interesting way of answering a multiple-choice question and checking students’ answers. The cards target differentiation.
I am confident your students will have sound mathematical knowledge and understanding of simplifying decimal-number ratios after completion of this unit. All the best for the academic year!
With this resource, your students will be able to simplify ratios that are fractions by writing each fraction with a common denominator to work with simplification of whole numbers. Also included is a fun Scavenger Hunt to reinforce taught content.

The templates are designed to be kid-friendly with cool kids clip-art and pleasant-to-read font to motivate students. Material that could otherwise prove daunting is presented in a simple easy-to-understand way.
SECTIONS INCLUDED:
♦ Booklet Cover featuring a brief overview of concepts learned
♦ Anchor Charts x 2 (colour and blackline) on Simplifying Ratios that are fractions
♦ Simplifying Ratios that are Fractions: 24 problems
♦ Simplifying Ratios that are Fractions Scavenger Hunt: 12 Cards (colour and
blackline) and 2 recording sheets
♦ 12 blackline Scavenger Hunt Cards on a single page for students to glue in their
notebooks as reference.
♦ Teaching Aid Sheet on Multiples of Numbers 2-10
SCAVENGER HUNT:
My students really enjoyed this activity – I’m sure your students will too! I cut out and laminated the twelve Scavenger Hunt Cards. I then tacked them to the wall with Blu-Tac. Spread them out or hide them for more fun.
♦ Students may start with any card to begin with.
♦ They write the ratio to solve on their recording sheets and look for the answer (top) on another card.
♦ The name of the picture of the card where the answer is found is written below the answer on the Recording Sheet.
♦ Students then solve the next question at the bottom of the card where they found the answer and look for the answer again on another card.
♦All questions are solved this way till the question of the last card loops back to the answer of the first card.
**Clear visual instructions further provided in file. The Scavenger Hunt is an effective way for students to check their working and arrive at the right answer in order to solve the next problem.
I am confident your students will have sound mathematical knowledge and understanding of simplifying ratios that are fractions after completion of this unit. All the best for the academic year!

ADDITIONAL:
✓ Answer Key included
Conceptualise understanding of odd numbers and even numbers with this 60 slide editable animated presentation and accompanying guided notes sheets for your students to follow along.
ITEMS INCLUDED:
Editable PowerPoint Presentation featuring 60 slides on odd numbers and even numbers. All text is editable, simply type inside the text boxes to edit content. The slides are also animated to present content in manageable chunks. A mini quiz in the slideshow is also included.
8 page guided notes sheets for students to record information as you present the slideshow.
Guided notes sample (key) filled in for teacher reference.
Student Cover Sheet, if compiling all guided notes sheets into a booklet.
30 questions Test (3 sheets) to assess understanding of odd numbers and even numbers (bonus).
SUGGESTED USE:
Do a warm-up activity on building number sense prior to commencing the slideshow on odd numbers and even numbers.
Present the slideshow and have students record information on the blank lines by referring to the presentation. At the bottom of each slide, students can refer to the notes page numbers to follow along accurately. Have students follow instructions on the slides – for this they need to keep ready a blue and a red shading pencil or highlighter. The short quiz at the end of the slideshow wraps up the instruction.
Present students with the test to assess taught content.
