Teachers’ Notes This resource is focused on the Number and Algebra Strand of the Australian Curriculum for lower ability students and those who need further opportunity to consolidate these core areas in Mathematics.

r o e t s Bo r e p ok u S

Each section provides students with the opportunity to consolidate written and mental methods of calculation, with an emphasis on process and understanding.

Teac he r

ew i ev Pr

The section entitled Skills With Decimals enables students to re-encounter ideas in decimal place value, calculations with decimals, comparing decimal quantities and rounding decimal amounts. These activities are a useful way to scaffold a new unit of Mathematics and will help build confidence for lower ability students to attempt more challenging problems at their year level. The section entitled Fractions, Decimals And Percentages walks students through conversions between fractions, decimals and percentages. The activities are designed to guide student learning with minimal input from the teacher and there is a strong emphasis on process and understanding. Students explore mental and written methods for performing conversion calculations. Attention is also given to real world applications and uses of these different representations, with an emphasis on understanding and using percentages.

© ReadyEdPubl i cat i ons The activities can be used for individual students needing further consolidation •f orr evi ew pur posesonl y• in a mainstream classroom or as instructional worksheets for a whole class of

m . u

lower ability students. The activities are tied to Curriculum Links in the Australian Curriculum ranging from grade levels of Year 5 through to Year 7 and are appropriate for students requiring extra support in Years 7, 8 and 9. It is hoped that Fractions, Decimals And Percentages will be used to help teachers provide appropriate resources and support to those students in greatest need. The book as a whole can be used as a programme of work for those students on a Modified Course or Independent Learning Programme. Activities are sufficiently guided so that students can work independently and at their own pace without constant supervision and guidance from the teacher.

Teachers’ Notes

Skills With Decimals The activities in this section allow students to revise many of the core Number properties and ideas that are involved when working with decimal numbers. Before introducing lower ability students to new work and applications involving decimals and percentages, these activities will encourage students to consolidate concepts from previous years.

r o e t s Bo r e p ok u S

Place Value

Students have the opportunity to explore what they know about place value for integers and extend this understanding to decimal place value. These activities are particularly useful before moving on to calculations and applications.

Rounding

Estimation

The concepts covered include:

To assist students with building their appreciation and understanding of working with numbers, estimation is a core skill. These activities will encourage students to reflect on whether their calculations are providing reasonable solutions.

of students. It may be useful to encourage students to check their answers with a calculator or appropriate technology. Full engagement with these core skills is also useful to prepare students for NAPLAN requirements.

m . u

As a concept with which many students experience difficulty, it is important to allow for a thorough consolidation of rounding decimals to specified place values. This is important work to include prior to work on scientific notation and significant figures.

Teachers’ Notes

Fractions, Decimals And Percentages The activities in this section allow students to revise basic ideas involving fractions and percentages and to further extend their understanding of the relationships between the three numerical representations.

r o e t s Bo r e p ok u S

The concepts covered include:

Students begin by examining percentages as visual fractional quantities, enabling them to draw parallels between percentages as being fractions out of one hundred.

Conversions

The emphasis on this section is students being able to convert between fractions, decimals and percentages using various mental and written strategies. A few different options are presented and explained and teacher discretion can be used to determine which strategies will be most useful for students.

Percentage Applications

A few of the core applications of percentages are given in this section which align closely with the topics in the Australian Curriculum for this age group. These are presented with mental and written strategies for understanding and engaging with the real-life applications.

*   Expressing Fractions As Decimals zz Sometimes we want to express as a fraction, rather than a decimal, to make some calculations easier. The easiest form is to change the denominator to a 10, 100 or 1000 where possible.

Example 1

Convert

2 to a decimal. 5

Convert

We can since 5 divides into 10 without a remainder. So to make the 5 into a 10 we need to multiply by 2.

If we want to change ¾ to a decimal we change the denominator to 100 (not 10, since 4 doesn’t divide into 10 evenly). We do this by multiplying top and bottom by 25. So ¾ = 75/100 So we have a 7 in the tenths column and a 5 in the hundredths column. So ¾ =0.75

ew i ev Pr

Whatever we do to the bottom we do to the top so the 2 becomes 4. 2/5 = 4/10 This means we have a 4 in the tenths column. So 2/5 = 0.4

*   Expressing Decimals As Fractions zz To convert a decimal to a fraction we simply need to look at the place value of the last decimal digit.

Example

Convert 0.24 to a fraction. Look at the decimal 0.24; we see that the last digit is in the hundredths column. So 0.24 = 24/100. We now simplify our answer by dividing top and bottom by 4 (the largest common denominator) and we have 6/25.

Converting recurring decimals to fractions is difficult if you don’t Fraction = First Fraction 1 – Fraction Ratio just know the answer. We can use this formula to help us work it out: For example if we look at 0.111111111 We can see that this is 0.1 +0.01 + 0.001 + … Using the formula we would have:

1 1 10 = 1 10 1– 10

Decimals And Equivalent Fractions * zz So far the fractions we have changed to decimals have all had a denominator which is a multiple of 10, such as 10, 100 and 1000. Sometimes it is necessary to convert fractions that cannot evenly be divided into 100. 36 needs to be divided by 6 so that the denominator is 10. 60

Example

6 36 ÷ 6 = 6 = 0.6 10 60 ÷ 6 = 10

Divide the top number by 6 ... Divide the denominator by 6 ...

Percentages 3 * zz So far we know that decimals and fractions can be used to represent the same amount. A percentage is another way of expressing a part of a whole. Per means ‘for every’ and cent means ‘100’ so it is easy to remember that percent means ‘for every 100’. For example, if we had 100 students playing on the school sports field and 56 of them were girls, we could say that 56 percent (56 out of 100) of the students playing are girls.

*   What Is My Test Score As A Percentage? How many times have you annoyed your teacher by asking them what your test score is as a percentage? Converting your test score to a percentage is exactly like converting a fraction to a percentage. We take our mark, divide it by the total number of marks in the test and then multiply by 100. For example, if I scored 45 marks out of 50 this is what I would do to change it to a percentage. 2 45 × 100 = 45 × 2 = 90% 50 1

*   What’s The Discount? One of the most familiar areas where we use percentages every day is when we go shopping at the sales. You’ll see lots of signs telling you the percentage discounts available. For example, if you want to buy a pair of jeans that are on sale at 20% off the normal retail price of $180, we can work out the sale price like this: 20 × 180 = $36 100

Sale Price = 180 - 36 = $144
