6.NS.9 Investigate and translate among multiple representations of rational numbers (fractions, decimal numbers, percentages). Fractions should be limited to those with denominators of 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 10, and 100.
Technology: ISTE Standards for Students
Empowered Learner 1c Students use technology to seek feedback that informs and improves their practice and to demonstrate their learning in a variety of ways.
Computational Thinker 5c Students break problems into component parts, extract key information, and develop descriptive models to understand complex systems or facilitate problem-solving.

Lesson Objectives
- After a guided note taking using the Elmo projection device, students will be able to identify the steps of translations between fractions, decimals, and percentages.
- While watching and interacting with the PBS game Dunk Tank!: Fractions, Decimals & Percents, students will be able to evaluate real world situations using fractions, decimals, and percentages and the translation between them.
- After watching and interacting with the PBS game Dunk Tank!: Fractions, Decimals & Percents, students will be able to compute translations between fractions, decimals, and percentages.
