Gr. 7 Mathletes Unite!                                                                                        

This week we are discovering the relationships between decimal numbers, fractions, and percentages.
I found a really cool site on Discovering Relationships between decimal numbers, fractions, and percentages for you to check out and explore this week.
Your challenge is to go to the site and click on the game link. Read the instructions and play the game titled compare all three. Choose Level A or B to begin and work up to Level C.  This is a great way to practice your skills!
Your next task is to complete the quizzes. Start with the Level A quiz and then proceed to Level B and C quizzes. Print your results for your Level B and C quizzes and bring them to class to receive credit!

If you need more support view this Explanation Video . A teacher discusses how to compare all three.

Hello Parents. Thank you for supporting your child's learning.
This weeks activities will help your child achieve the Gr. 7 Number Sense and Numeration expectation:
-represent, compare, and order decimals to hundredths, fractions, and percentages using a variety of tools.
Please encourage your students to develop their understanding of the comparisons between decimals, fractions, and percentages. If you think your child will benefit from more practice you can also direct them to the worksheet section  where you will find lots of additional activities to practice these skills. Also, be sure to check out the Explanation Video above to gain a better understanding of the content.
