IMN Activities for Adding Decimals {Grade 5}


These interactive notebook activities are intended to help students understand how to recognize that in a multi-digit number, a digit in one place represents 10 times as much as it represents in the place to its right and 1/10 of what it represents in the place to its left, read and write decimals to the thousandths, and add decimals to hundredths, using concrete models or drawings and strategies based on place value.

Included are:
-4 different Adding Decimals activities to engage students
-Teacher facilitated activity for 60-90 minutes of classroom time
-Activities include: Vocabulary, Writing decimals in standard form, word form and expanded form, Modeling adding decimals, and Practice lining up and adding decimals.
-Examples of Completed Interactive Math Notebook Activities are included.
-Answer Keys INCLUDED!

This set is a great for mastery of concepts for any 5th grade Interactive Math Notebook! Teaching and reviewing decimals can be difficult, but when you break down the concepts and have the students interact with the concepts, the students will master it. Some of the best advice I give students for adding decimals is slow down, line up your decimals, and think about the process. Always double checking your work ensures that you have the right answer, and have done the correct method of lining up and adding the correct place values together. Have fun with decimals!

Happy Teaching!
