Decimal Concepts Unit {with Interactive Notes}

Decimals: Models, Standard, Word, Expanded Form, Rounding, and Comparing

These resources help simplify a challenging topic! I spent about 3 weeks teaching this unit to my own fifth grade students, and I can attest to its success.

My students love the interactive notes and refer to them often. I create interactive notes with minimal cutting and gluing so that it does not take too much time away from the actual lesson. If you do not use interactive notes, you can always print them out and use them as a packet.

The PowerPoint lesson is sequential and builds understanding. The lesson starts with the foundation of decimals using base ten blocks and then moves into the algorithms. This really helped my students understand WHY we read, write, and interpret decimals in certain ways.

This unit includes:

•Decimal Concepts PowerPoint Lesson(78 slides)
•Interactive Notes
•Decimal Concepts Practice Sheet
•Four Exit Tickets
•Decimal Concepts Review Game and Answer Sheet
•Decimal Concepts Assessment

The presentation covers the following topics:

1. Understanding Decimals Using Models
2. Reading, Writing, and Drawing Decimals Using Models
3. Writing Numbers as Decimals and Fractions
4. Reading and Writing Decimals in Standard, Word, and Expanded Form
5. Comparing and Ordering Decimals
6. Rounding Decimals
