Good evening,
I just wanted to clarify the material that will be covered on the quiz.
We have been adding and subtracting decimal numbers. That portion will be on Wednesday.
Thursday will cover equivalent fractions (eg. 1/2=3/6), comparing fractions (1/2>1/3) and turning fractions into decimal numbers (eg. 3/4=75/100=0.75). We have practiced looking at a hundreds chart and seeing how many ways it can be divided. It can be divided into tens (1/10=10/100=0.1), into fives (1/5=20/100=0.2), into quarters (1/4=25/100=0.25) and into halves (1/2=50/100=0.50)/
Here is a website the students can use to practice equivalent fractions:

They were also playing a game called Tony's pizza game. If you go on google and type in the name, it will bring up the game.
I will do another review in class tomorrow.
As always, please let me know if you have any questions.
