Sums of Decimal Products Game

Module 10, Lesson 1
Differentiation Activities

Extra Help: 
Students use tenths grids or number lines to model multiplying a whole number x a decimal.

Extra Practice
Students work in pairs and choose a recording sheet (grids or number lines). On their turn, students roll a cube and pick a card to make a multiplication problem and represent it on their recording sheet.  After 5 rounds, the partner with the greatest sum of products wins.  You can have students switch recording sheets the next time they play, or have everyone work on one type of sheet (grids or number lines.)

Sums of Products Recording Sheets and Decimal Cards

Points for Products

Module 8, Lesson 1
Extra Help, Practice, and Challenge







Students work in pairs to multiply fractions and whole numbers. There are several levels of cards so you can differentiate for your student needs. Students earn points depending on the size of their product.

Subtracting Fractions with Related Denominators

Module 7, Lesson 2 Differentiation Activities

These differentiation activities provide students an opportunity to develop their ability to work with subtracting related denominators. You can differentiate the difficulty by choosing which set of cards to use for pairs of students. If students need additional support changing denominators, use the support page linked below.


Extra Help & Practice - Fraction Cards from Support 24 (denominators of 5 and 10)

Extra Challenge - Fraction Cards from Extra Challenge 7.2 (denominators of 3, 6, 12, 18)

Rounding Roll Up

This workstation allows students to practice rounding decimals to any place. It can be used in partners or individually.  Be sure to print the number mat on legal sized paper so it fits the cards.

Partitioning Dividends

Module 6, Lesson 9
Extra Challenge



Give students the list of equations. Students take turns to roll and cube, which tells them the number of partitions a dividend must be split into to help calculate the answer. The first student to calculate the quotient wins. Alternatively, each student could roll until they get a different divisor and compare the parts they used to solve the equation.

Adding Related Denominators

Module 6, Lesson 3
Extra Practice

Students work in pairs to add fractions. Students place the cards face up and, on their turn, select two cards with different denominators. Students estimate the sum, then calculate it exactly. Students who need additional support finding equivalent fractions can use the support page linked below.  Play continues until all cards are used.

Target 1: Adding Fractions with Like Denominators

Module 6, Lesson 2
Extra Challenge

Player 1 chooses a card and places it anywhere in one of the equations. Players alternate choosing cards and placing the fractions on their gamboard until all 5 equations for each player are completed. To score the game, players calculate total of all the sums of their equations. Students earn a bonus point for any equation with a sum equal to 1. Students continue playing for multiple rounds.

One option to help develop conceptual understanding is to have students model their equations on number lines or using fraction tiles.
