Common Core Standard(s)/(State Standards):
CC.7.NS.1 Apply and extend previous understandings of
operations with fractions to add, subtract, multiply, and
divide rational numbers. Apply and extend previous
understandings of addition and subtraction to add and
subtract rational numbers; represent addition and subtraction
on a horizontal or vertical number line diagram.
CC.7.NS.2 Apply and extend previous understandings of
operations with fractions to add, subtract, multiply, and
divide rational numbers. Apply and extend previous
understandings of multiplication and division and of fractions
to multiply and divide rational numbers.
CC.7.NS.2d Convert a rational number to a decimal using long
division; know that the decimal form of a rational number
terminates in 0s or eventually repeats.

Learning Target: (What will the students know & be able to
do as a result of these lessons)?
Convert fractions to decimals. Solve expressions and
equations using PEMDAS.





















Essential Questions/Enduring Understanding:
What are rational numbers?



Formative Assessments: (How will you & your students know
if they have successfully met the outcomes? What specific
criteria will be met in a successful product/process? What
does success look like on this lessons outcome look like?)

Quizzes, homework, learning check (entrance exit slips)





Questioning: (What questions do I need to ask students? What questions can I ask students who get stuck?)
How do you convert a decimal to a fraction? Why is order important?

Misconceptions: (What Misconceptions might students have?)
Order does not matter.
Relevance/Rationale: (Why are the outcomes of this lesson important in the real world?) Why are these
outcomes essential for future learning?)
Essential to math development.
