Number of the Day Slides – Year 6 Math Warm-Ups (Phase 2)
NZ$8.00
Description
Prepare your students for intermediate math with these 70 Year 6 (Phase 2) “Number of the Day” slides. Designed for the specific needs of Year 6 students, this resource connects complex place value concepts with fractions, decimals, and percentages.
These daily warm-ups are rigorous and designed to build fluency across the full base-10 system—extending from millions down to thousandths.
What’s Covered in Phase 2:
Aligned with Year 6 curriculum standards, these 70 slides cover advanced number knowledge and rational numbers.
- Complex Place Value:
- Working with large whole numbers up to 10,000,000.
- Decimal Precision: Mastering tenths, hundredths, and thousandths (e.g., 0.505, 45,633.2).
- Rounding: Rounding to the nearest million, tenth, and hundredth.
- Rational Numbers (Fractions, Decimals, & Percentages):
- Equivalency: Converting between forms (e.g., 0.25=25%=1/4).
- Calculations: Finding 50%, 25%, and 75% of a number.
- Reverse Operations: Finding the whole amount when given a percentage (e.g., “Find the whole (100%) if 2,400 is 25% of the amount”).
- Operations & Integers:
- Micro-Sequencing: Counting in small decimals (0.1 more, 0.01 less).
- Expanded Notation: Breaking down numbers with mixed integers and decimals (e.g., 300+60+0.5+0.05).
- Multi-Step Problems: Solving equations embedded in the slides (e.g., (6,725−6,225)÷10).
What’s Included:
- Teacher Guidance Slides: Overview of Year 6 “Knowledge” and “Practices” regarding the infinite nature of the base 10 system and rational numbers.
- Daily Activity Slides: A robust set of slides featuring integers, large numbers, and decimals designed to challenge Year 6 learners.
How to Use: Project the slide of the day. Students can work individually or in groups to solve the complex percentage and decimal problems. These slides are excellent for identifying gaps in student understanding regarding the connection between decimals and fractions.
