Decimals Teacher Resources

Three activities make up an introductory lesson designed to create a strong foundation in comparing fractions to decimals and exploring and building decimal models. Pupils brainstorm and complete a Venn diagram to show how decimals and...

Mathematicians can embark on a math challenge. Fourteen pages of exercises for young algebra learners on fractions, decimals, and percentages let your learners put their skills to the test.  

Have your class practice converting fractions to decimals, adding decimals, comparing fractions, and more. Following a game format, learners solidify important skills while solving problems involving fractions and decimals.

What a great way to review math concepts involving decimals and percents! Learners solve problems involving adding decimals, converting percents to decimals, and multiplying decimals.

Once learners have been instructed on the processes of converting decimals to fractions and percents, they must practice the skill. Use a set of five worksheets that allow young mathematicians to reinforce decimal conversion.

Which decimal is greater? Learners start by comparing eight pairs of decimals, writing in the symbol (> or <) to indicate values. The next two sections involve sets of three decimals. They start by circling the decimal with the...

Ordering decimals is different from ordering whole numbers, but your scholars will get the hang of it after assorting 17 sets of numbers from least to greatest. The numbers all have decimals to the hundreds place, so they use knowledge...

Practice makes perfect with this decimals assignment, Arithmeticians compare thirty pairs of numbers to the thousandth place are compared. For each, they must write the correct sign: <, > or =. Add this to your collection of...

Mixed numbers made easy! Use a worksheet on fractions and decimals to help your fourth graders master converting mixed numbers to decimals - and vice versa. They work on mixed numbers and decimals, and then convert three fractions into...

In this easy-to-understand video, an instructor shows how to convert fractions to decimals, decimals to percentages, and fractions to percentages. After watching this film, the conversion process should be easier for your learners to grasp.

Voila! Young mathematicians become magicians as they turn fractions into decimals and decimals into fractions. They reference examples before completing 37 transformations on their own. The first 16 are fractions with a denominator of...

Challenge your fifth graders with a activity on rounding decimals. Each section provides three columns of decimals and a space for pupils to round them to the nearest tenth. This makes a nice homework assignment, or a timed in-class test.

Find the product of numbers that have decimals. First, ignore the decimals and multiply the integers. Second, count the place values of the decimals for each value given. Third, add the values together. Fourth, place the decimal in the...

Here is a very fine worksheet you can use to teach your charges how to add decimals. There are 21 problems, and an excellent example of how this technique is used at the top of the page. An answer key makes up the second part of this...

Adding decimals can be simple; show scholars the practical uses of adding numbers with decimals as they add measurements and amounts of money. The first eight equations are written vertically with some sums requiring a dollar sign, some...

Help mathematicians convert fractions to decimals and vice versa through these exercise sets. First, they write out nine fractions as decimals. This is really a practice in place value, as all the denominators here are 10. One of them...

Practice putting decimals in order. This resource presents ten sets of decimals for kids to order. After working through the first five sets, they review measurement and unit conversion (kilometers and meters) in the next five problems....

Introduce decimals to your fourth grade class with a worksheet that provides four number lines for them to complete. A list of decimals have already been plotted on the number lines; learners only need to label each point. This is a...

Subtracting? Line up the decimals, line up the decimals, line up the decimals! Put in place holder trailing zeros, when necessary. Now do your subtraction. When you have your answer, bring down the decimal, bring down the decimal, bring...

Subtracting? Line up the decimals, line up the decimals, line up the decimals! Put in place-holder trailing zeros, when necessary. Now do your subtraction. When you have your answer, bring down the decimal, bring down the decimal, bring...

Part lesson, part worksheet, this handout walks math minors through the comparison of two decimal numbers. It teaches them the trick of tagging zeroes in to get the numbers to be the same length to better understand place value. A set of...

Dividing decimals is not hard, but one has to know how to manipulate the decimal point in order to achieve correct answers. In this math presentation, learners are taken through the process step-by-step in a clear and concise fashion....

Converting decimals to whole numbers is explained. An instructor shows how to multiply a decimal to convert it to a whole number. She then goes on to explain how to find the answer to a division problem involving decimals.

Are your fourth graders having problems with decimals? Help them identify the place value of various numbers. Here, they describe what happens to the value of different numbers, as well as select numbers with given values in the tenths...
