This pack is filled with engaging and fun worksheets designed to introduce students to equivalent fractions converting between fractions, decimals and percentages. There are 10 worksheets, each differentiated 3 ways. There are two files. One with the worksheets and one with the solutions and teachers notes.

This pack contains the following:
Worksheet 1 Bar Equivalence
Worksheet 2 Equivalent Fractions
Worksheet 3 Equivalent Linking
Worksheet 4 Simplifying Fractions
Worksheet 5 Percentages and Decimals
Worksheet 6 Tenths as Decimals
Worksheet 7 Buttons
Worksheet 8 Word Link Fractions Decimals and Percents

The first worksheet introduces students to equivalent fractions using fraction bars as a way of comparing. The second worksheet consists of fraction circles as a way to compare equivalent fractions. The third worksheet is a linking activity where students link drawn equivalent fractions. This time the drawn fractions are in different shapes, such as circle, square, octagon, so students are required to find the fraction of the shape that is shaded before connecting it to the equivalent fraction.

The fourth worksheet is a more traditional equivalent fractions sheet, asking students to simplify fractions in the numerical form. The fifth worksheet covers converting between decimals and percentages, and the sixth worksheet covers converting decimal fractions (fractions with a denominator with a power of 10 such as 10, 100 and 1000) into decimals and percentages.

The seventh worksheet is a challenge worksheet looking at what fraction of buttons are shaded. It encourages simplification, and differentiation 3 even has a question about percentages.

The eighth worksheet is a work link puzzle, where students connect fractions to equivalent decimals and percentages with lines, which go through letters on the page which froms a word. It covers 1/2, 1/4, 3/4, 1/5, 2/5 and 1/10

The ninth worksheet consists of word problems involving equivalent fractions. Differentiations 1 and 2 include circle fractions for shading to help with the questions. The final worksheet covers converting between fractions, decimals and percentages including using inequality symbols to state which number is larger, and an ordering fractions decimals and percentages question. It consists of 1/2, 1/4, 3/4, 1/5 and decimal fractions (fractions with denominators that are powers of 10).
