Fractions and Decimals A Self-Teaching Guide & Workbook to Master Conversions, Operations, and Practical Math Skills! — Rational Number Remediation & Middle-Grade Gap Recovery By Jones Instruction  Transform Math Gaps Into Rational Number Mastery! Are your students struggling to cross the bridge between fractions and decimals? Fractions and Decimals provides a targeted framework focused on step-by-step computation, visual scaffolding, and seamless conversions.  Designed for middle-grade gap recovery, this workbook focuses strictly on core procedural mechanics, visual tracking, and operational fluency without sensory overwhelm.  What’s Inside:  * Scaffolding Grid Tools: Visual breakdowns of numerators, denominators, and decimal tenths charts. * Hands-On Practice: Number line mapping and "Star Fractions" execution metrics. * Comprehensive Conversions: Transforming fractions into terminating or repeating decimals and back again. * Analytical Ordering: Mathematical systems to compare, rank, and order mixed rational numbers with accuracy. * Complete Answer Key: Embedded appendix for immediate self-checking or rapid teacher grading. TARGETED SKILL MATRIX:  * Sec. 1: Foundations - Visual mapping of numerators, denominators, and decimal tenths. * Sec. 2: Shading Work - Number line integration, visual grouping, and fractional areas. * Sec. 3: Conversions - Procedural mechanics for changing fractions to decimals. * Sec. 4: Reverse Transformation - Converting complex decimals back into standard fractions. * Sec. 5: Rational Ordering - Systems for comparing, matching, and inequality ranking. Perfect For:  * Classroom Labs & Remediation: Tailored for Tier 2 warm-ups, small groups, or core skills maintenance. * Tutoring & Core Recovery: Rapid gap intervention before state accountability testing. * Home-school Study: Independent, turn-key curriculum supplement.
