Just checking...have you tried typing in 'free math fractions decimals

percentages equivalents games tips' in your search engine (google, , etc.)?

There are some good websites that offer free online games or worksheets, etc.

that can help. You might have to go through several sites before finding some

you like, but it's been worth it for us and our elementary-age daughter! Good

luck! --Kari

It really is simple. Just treat others kindly and with respect.

Everyone learns differently, so take this with a grain of salt.

I think manipulatives are really helpful. " Fun with Pizza Fractions " by

Learning Resources is good. It's a game, but I just used the pieces to show

equivalents and other stuff. Also, with decimals, start with money. Get a few

rolls of pennies, dimes and bills.

The book series " Life of Fred " teaches math in a novel way. There is a fraction

book and then a decimals and percent book. Singapore math might also be an

option, and there are placement tests online so you can figure out which one to

start at (they tend to be 1/2-1 grade ahead of the US).
