| The10 steps (files) below are intended to involve teachers in games and activities that will provide them with ideas they can immediately implement in their classrooms. These steps have been placed in order but each is independent so that individual steps or the games and activities within them can be run off and placed in any desirable order. Most of the steps have both games and activities to illustrate specific decimal topics and you can make selections based on time constraints needs of teachers and your preferences. | |||||||||||
