Help a town planner to design a site plan for a city. Assign regions on a 10x20 grid for different uses such as factories, hospitals or parks. Calculate the percentage and the fraction of the total site used for each region. Use a number line to display fractions and equivalent decimals. This learning object is one in a series of three objects combined as 'Neighbourhood fractions'.
Great science clips to use in the classroom for your literacy/ICT lessons. Some would be great on the IWB while others could be completed individually by students on the desktop computers.
A great interactive site with information on animals, rainforest layers, coffee, chocolate and also what it is like to live near a rainforest. Plenty of information and games for students to try.
