Converting Fractions, Decimals and Percents Activity

In this low-prep math coloring activity for grades 6 to 8, students practice converting fractions, decimals and percents and comparing equivalent forms. Their answers determine how they complete the coloring page, which makes it a change from a traditional worksheet.

What’s included

• 12-question fractions, decimals and percents practice page
• Coloring page
• Complete answer key
• Teacher lesson details with standards, common misconceptions and suggestions for use

How it works

The 12 problems have students convert and order fractions, decimals and percents. They solve each problem, choose the correct answer from three options, and use the corresponding color to complete the picture.

The suggested completion time is approximately 30 minutes. That length works for:

• Classwork or independent practice
• Math centers or stations
• Homework
• Informal assessment
• Review before a quiz or test
• Early finishers
• Sub plans
