Operations with Rational Numbers
This 5-slide presentation provides direct instruction on solving problems involving operations with rational numbers, including converting between fractions, decimals, and percentages. It is designed for 6th graders to build understanding of number properties and problem-solving strategies.
“A slide deck for direct instruction on 7.NR.1: Solve relevant, mathematical problems, including multi-step problems, involving the four operations with rational numbers and quantities in any form (integers, percentages, fractions, and decimal numbers). ■ 7.NR.1.9: Apply properties of operations as strategies to solve multiplication and division problems involving rational numbers represented in an applicable scenario. ■ 7.NR.1.10: Convert rational numbers between forms to include fractions, decimal numbers and percentages, using understanding of the part divided by the whole. Know that the decimal form of a rational number terminates in 0s or eventually repeat.”
Teacher Guide & Tips
- Use this slide deck for a 30-45 minute whole-class direct instruction lesson.
- Discussion question: How can understanding the properties of operations help us solve complex problems with rational numbers more efficiently?
- Scaffold for struggling learners: Provide a graphic organizer that visually maps the relationships between fractions, decimals, and percentages.
- Extension for advanced learners: Challenge students to create their own real-world problems that require converting between number forms and performing operations with rational numbers.
