Lesson Outline
Introduction (5 minutes)
Write a list of fractions on the board and ask students to convert them
into decimals. Have students determine if each decimal is terminating
or non-terminating.
Examples:
o 1/2 (0.5 - terminating)
o 2/3 (0.666... - non-terminating repeating)
o 1/4 (0.25 - terminating)
o 1/7 (0.142857… - non-terminating repeating)
o √2 (non-terminating non-repeating)
Ask students why they think some decimals end while others continue
indefinitely.
Activity (5 minutes)
Give students a short list of decimal numbers and ask them to classify
each as:
o Terminating
o Non-terminating repeating
o Non-terminating non-repeating
Sample decimals: 0.75, 0.8181..., 3.14159…
