Multiplication and Division Pictorial Models - Decimals/Fractions - FREE
If you teach mathematics from 4th through 8th grade, this resource should be extremely helpful to you.Students need computational prowess, but they must understand the model - the physical model on what the computations represent. As an urban Title 1 principal, I worked with so many teachers that did not possess a clear view of these models that I made up as a "Cheat" sheet for them. Earlier this year, I cleaned up this resource.The model is complete for all fraction and decimal multiplication p

Calculations, Checking & Rounding - Complete Unit of Work
In this unit, students will develop their numerical understanding. They will begin by looking at calculation methods for addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, including their application to decimals. They will then learn to use answers to decimal calculations to assess answers to other questions, to round numbers to given numbers of decimal places or significant figures, to estimate answers and to check calculations.

Accuracy & Bounds - Complete Unit of Work
In this unit, students will learn how to find upper and lower bounds of calculations. They will start by looking at the limits of accuracy for individual values, and then consider using these to find measurements such as perimeters, areas and volumes, before finally finding upper and lower bounds of calculations involving four operations, and using these bounds to express answers to appropriate degrees of accuracy.

"Fraction, Decimals and Mixed Numbers, Oh My!" ---- 'The Big Finish' -- FREE
The video "Fraction, Decimals and Mixed Numbers, Oh My!" is the fourth and last in this arithmetic content series, and for that reason, it is aptly sub titled, “The Big Finish!” It stresses connecting all fractional elements so students understand their physical relationship between one another, so that these skill elements are not learned only in isolation. The grade level intent is for 4th grade through 8th grade students; however, the process described in the video may be helpful to high sch

Teaching Decimal Magnitudes - By Thinking Money - FREE
This video's main focus is teaching decimal magnitudes. Kiddos look at decimals and they do not really understand how 'big' they are or where they fit into their previously learned whole number schema.The video's intent is for teachers to treat decimals 'as if they were only money' since only the tenths and hundredths place values significantly affect the overall 'size' of the decimal. It is a Free Video.I hope intermediate elementary and middle school teachers find the content somewhat useful

Decimals: Understanding Magnitude - Level 3 (FREE)
Last sheets of this series...The kiddos are good to go with decimals if the teacher has covered the first two steps...Level 1 and Level 2.Interestingly...many adults I have met over the years also think at decimal like the number 5.4398267 is somehow a large number...when in fact it is APPROXIMATELY/ABOUT 5 dollars and 44 cents...$5.44 ....44 cents (0.44) from 5 dollars and 56 cents (0.56) from 6 dollars. This exercise straightens that misconception out - quite quickly.Best, Blaine Helwig
