In this class we will learn the different ways in which we can think about the parts of a whole number. We will work with fractions, decimals, and percentages by using story problems, written practice and incorporating games and puzzles, and students will learn how to convert between fractions, decimals and percentages as they become comfortable with each individually. We will also work with additional, subtraction, multiplication and division of fractions and decimals. The focus will be shaped as the teacher works with the students who attend, based on where the most practice is needed.
