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...

Base ten blocks serve as visual representations of numbers that include decimals to the hundredths place. Children compare and order decimals in their math journal as they build the corresponding numbers with base ten blocks.

The class discovers how a decimal can make all the difference in the Olympics. As they learn about decimal place values, they compare and contrast data and demonstrate decimal values using manipulatives.

Create your own fraction kits by folding and labeling paper using fraction vocabulary. Learners then work in groups to use these in comparing and sequencing both whole numbers and fractions. They also create unit cubes and develop an...

NASA presents a mini-unit on distances in our solar system. It incorporates scientific concepts of gravity, mass, density, and payload while your aspiring astronauts also employ mathematics skills. They calculate speed, they determine...

Fractions, decimals, and percents all say the same thing! Show your classes how to convert between the three forms using visual and numeric representations. Then lead them to an understanding of scientific notation.

Young math whizzes complete the online instruction, then solve 20 problems about identifying decimals, comparing decimals and fractions and ordering decimals.

Can you support the argument that the decimal 0.99999 ... is equivalent to the number one? The seventh installment in this 25-part module gives convincing support for this conclusion. Pupils write infinite decimals using powers of 10....

Learners solve word problems using number sense. They convert fractions to decimals and mixed numbers. Pupils determine if a given fraction is greater or less than another fraction, and order numbers on a number line.

Sixth graders identify how fractions and decimals both illustrate parts of a whole. They estimate which number is greater by comparing them to the given fraction and use greater than or less than symbols for each.

Order up a resource on comparing rational numbers. Scholars order fractions, decimals, and percents by converting to a single form. They conduct a cut-and-paste activity ordering three sets of rational numbers.

The ninth installment of a 21-part module has pupils compare integers and rational numbers in decimal and fraction form. They match stories to number lines and compare values in the stories.

In this math worksheet, young scholars will work with a coach to add and subtract numbers with decimals to the hundredths. Students will follow a step-by-step process and notes are provided for the coach.
