    This was a great way to practice adding decimals. I wish it was a little more student-friendly or in the format of a worksheet more. I put the choices on my smartboard but students had a hard time drawing, remembering.

  20. Becky C. –

    While this is a fun activity in theory the worksheet set up and design is NOT user/student friendly. This made it really frustrating for my students when they were trying to solve the problems.

      I have several ideas for you to make this easier! Hope this helps!
      -Print the store on cardstock and give to each group or partner set.
      -Print the store on poster paper and display at the front of the room.
      -Print the store on paper and display in multiple places around the room.
      -Print he store on paper and display in picture frames or plastic sleeves.

    We used this for a review of decimals and my students love it. Mainly because many of them love to draw adding and subtracting was not boring to them. As a teacher, this is an easy activity to prep for.
