Decimals

We have been working on decimals this week. We go to the hundredths place, but are aware that there are more decimal place values.

We will be able to illustrate decimals,

Compare and order decimals,

And relate decimals to money.

We will also practice writing them in standard form, word form, expanded form, and expanded notation.

Standard form: 31.25

Word form: thirty two and twenty-five hundredths

Expanded form: 30 + 1 + 0.2 + 0.05

Expanded notation: (3 x 10) + (1 x 1) + (2 x 0.1) + (5 x 0.01) or  3(10) + 1(1) + 2(0.1) + 5(0.01) 

Here are some of the anchor charts we use in class to help us with decimals:
