Class Game - Fraction to Decimal

A really fun whole class game, which includes 31 student cards and 1 teacher's starter card. Once confident, students can race the clock and strive to beat their best time. As an added benefit, these games are great for encouraging teamwork.

This is a great game to play regularly as a whole class, either as a Mathematics warm-up or as a revision of student’s number facts knowledge.

Learning goals

  • We are learning to compare and order fractions and mixed numerals using knowledge of factors and multiples and represent them on a number line.
  • We are learning to compare and order common unit fractions and locate and represent them on a number line.
  • We are learning to compare and order numbers with more than two decimal places and represent decimal numbers including numbers greater than 1, e.g. 1.68cm, on number lines.
  • We are learning to compare, order and represent decimals on number lines.
  • We are learning to recognise that 100% represents a whole and use percentages to describe, represent and compare relative percentages visually, e.g. shading a hundreds grid and connect percentages to their decimal and fraction equivalents.
  • We are learning to compare, order and represent common fractions including halves, thirds and quarters on the same number line and justify their order.
  • We are learning to make connections between equivalent fractions, decimals and percentages.
