Having trouble visualizing how to "break down" math concepts and how to structure your teaching? New to this grade level or unfamiliar with "how" to teach it? Tired of passing out worksheets? If you're wanting to try something else to see if your students become more engaged and confident in math... Look no further. No book? No problem. Printer broken? No problem. Multi-levelled or split classrooms? No problem.

Imagine math classes that require zero prep, zero paper, zero planning, and slides which not only prompt your students to engage, discuss, solve and prove their understanding, but prompt you to teach concepts at a slow, realistic pace? Imagine not having to write down examples on your board and having more time to assess your students in real time. This document does just that.

This is one my paperless teaching products; where my 161-page Slide Deck will take your hand and guide you to teach following a workshop model. I provide ample explanations, examples, step-by-step instruction, assessment and answer keys. Apart from the assessment materials at the end of this document, it requires virtually no printing. It just requires you (or anyone!) to be there to follow the Slide Deck.

This was created (and used!) for students in grades 5-7 and works great for older students on IEPs, students en adaptation scolaire, as revision for older grades, or for online learning. Partner work and independent work are imbedded in the slides. Students receive many guided explanations so they can work independently.

Let me teach you - and your students - how fractions, decimals and percentages work.

I cover everything your students need to know about fractions, including:

• Equivalent Fractions,
• Decimal equivalence,
• Improper fractions and mixed numbers,
• Conversion of fraction types,
• Comparing and ordering fractions,
• Ordering fractions on a number line,
• Reference points,
• Visual strategies for fractions.
• ... And more !

In addition to the 140-page slide deck, there are 11 pages of printable assessments which can be used as check-ins, formal or informal assessment, revision, printables for a substitute or just for independent work. There are answer keys for all printable assessments as well as answer keys imbedded throughout the Slide Deck for your students to reference throughout their learning.

As with ALL of my documents, I can never quite shut my brain off, and when I add to or improve my documents, by purchasing this document, you'll forever get access to the changes I've made (including the most recent one in August 2023).
