This is the 3rd Game using the Everyday Math Fraction/Decimal/Percent Card Deck that I’ve created and posted on my blog. This game would be a great introduction to the study of the number sense idea that all three values represent the same amount. As you can see on the illustration shown on the game board, all three values of 3/4, .75 and 75% have 75 out of the 100 squares colored in to represent the three amounts.
Why take the class time to play this game? Many students have difficulty making the connection that the values expressed all represent the same value. By using the same 10 x 10 grid to express all 3 values, that helps the students see the connection too.
Please know that you can also create your own fraction/decimal/percent cards in place of those created and sold by Everyday Math. I’m just highlighting the Everyday Math product because many teachers already have them, but don’t utilize them fully in their classrooms. I found a great internet site that allows you to create your own cards and will discuss it in a future post.
