Hi, my name is Samuel. I thought this program was very informative. Thank you for all your help with fractions. Will you thank King James for me ?
Hi Sam, glad you liked the lesson! Hopefully you see that fractions can help you describe things like how good of basketball player LeBron is. We don’t talk that much, but I will see what I can work out ;).
Thanks for the Lesson. I have used it for 2 years now and it really shows students how percents, decimals, and fractions are used in the real world.
You are quite welcome. Thank you for your support! Messages like this are the whole reason why I make these lessons! Thank you for using them and making math more with your student(s)!
I try to make connections to the real world with my resource room students in math – all boys! They loved this lesson and I loved that they were solidifying the connections between decimals, percents and fractions. I am so glad that I found this site.
Feel free to add more Matt!!
So glad you love it! That reaction is the reason I publish these, it is always a great feeling to know that other educators are putting them to good use!
How do I make this video, only, available to my students on Edmodo.com?
Thanks!
