With this resource, your students will be able to simplify ratios that are fractions by writing each fraction with a common denominator to work with simplification of whole numbers. Also included is a fun Scavenger Hunt to reinforce taught content.

This resource will provide your students with a thorough understanding on the concept of simplifying ratios that are fractions. The templates are designed to be kid-friendly with cool kids clip-art and pleasant-to-read font to motivate students. Material that could otherwise prove daunting is presented in a simple easy-to-understand way.

SECTIONS INCLUDED:
♦ Booklet Cover featuring a brief overview of concepts learned
♦ Anchor Charts x 2 (colour and blackline) on Simplifying Ratios that are fractions
♦ Simplifying Ratios that are Fractions: 24 problems
♦ Simplifying Ratios that are Fractions Scavenger Hunt: 12 Cards (colour and
blackline) and 2 recording sheets
♦ 12 blackline Scavenger Hunt Cards on a single page for students to glue in their
notebooks as reference.
♦ Teaching Aid Sheet on Multiples of Numbers 2-10

SCAVENGER HUNT:
My students really enjoyed this activity – I’m sure your students will too! I cut out and laminated the twelve Scavenger Hunt Cards. I then tacked them to the wall with Blu-Tac. Spread them out or hide them for more fun.

♦ Students may start with any card to begin with.

♦ They write the ratio to solve on their recording sheets and look for the answer (top) on another card.

♦ The name of the picture of the card where the answer is found is written below the answer on the Recording Sheet.

♦ Students then solve the next question at the bottom of the card where they found the answer and look for the answer again on another card.

♦All questions are solved this way till the question of the last card loops back to the answer of the first card.

**Clear visual instructions further provided in file. The Scavenger Hunt is an effective way for students to check their working and arrive at the right answer in order to solve the next problem.

I am confident your students will have sound mathematical knowledge and understanding of simplifying ratios that are fractions after completion of this unit. All the best for the academic year!

SIMPLIFYING RATIOS: WHOLE NUMBERS With this resource, your students will be able to simplify whole number ratios, find the highest common factor (HCF), formulate equivalent ratios and identify a pattern in a given set of ratios. Also included is a fun Math Lib activity to reinforce taught content. SECTIONS INCLUDED: ♦ Booklet Cover with a quote by Hans Hoffman ♦ Study note on Simplifying Ratios ♦ Simplifying whole-number ratios by finding the highest common factor (HCF) – ‘work with the teacher’ sheets and ‘work on your own’ sheets ♦ Simplifying whole-number ratios (math LIB) Recording Sheet. ♦ Simplifying whole-number ratios (math LIB) 10 Task Cards. (2 on a page) colour and Blackline ♦ Simplifying whole-number ratios (math LIB) 10 blackline Task Cards on a single page for students to glue in their notebooks as reference. ♦ Completing the patterns of equivalent ratios sheet \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\* 3\. SIMPLIFYING RATIOS: DECIMAL NUMBERS This resource will teach your students to simplify ratios that have decimal numbers by multiplying by the powers of ten to work with simplification of whole numbers. Also included is a fun Math Lib activity to reinforce taught content. SECTIONS INCLUDED: ♦ Booklet Cover (for student) ♦ Anchor Chart (colour and blackline) on Simplifying Ratios with decimal numbers. ♦ Simplifying decimal number ratios: 33 problems ♦ Simplifying decimal number ratios (math LIB) Recording Sheet. ♦ Simplifying decimal number ratios (math LIB) 10 Task Cards. (2 on a page) colour and Blackline ♦ Simplifying decimal number ratios (math LIB) 10 blackline Task Cards on a single page for students to glue in their notebooks as reference. \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\* MATH LIB ACTIVITY: My students really enjoyed this activity – I’m sure your students will too! I cut out and laminated the ten task cards. I then tacked them to the wall with Blu-Tac (this way cards don’t get lost if they were left on students’ desks – it also gets students up and moving), Students then write the ratio to solve on their recording sheet, simplify it and look for their answer from the list of options. They write the word against the selected option in the ‘fill in the blanks’ section. The end result is a spooky message. You will find that this is a far more interesting way of answering a multiple-choice question and checking students’ answers. The cards target differentiation. \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\* 4\.

These pages adopt the same approach to solving the problem similar to the ‘Work with the Teacher’ pages. The word problems are also similar, just featuring different digits to reinforce problem-solving strategies and set up all students for success. The ‘Work with the Teacher and a Partner’ pages would be more suitable for students willing to take on more of a challenge. ♦ Detailed answer key for all problems that can be projected on an interactive whiteboard for explicit teacher explanation. \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\* 6\.
