What students practice
Each tenth is a column of 10 squares on a hundred grid. Students write shaded grids as tenths and as hundredths, find equal tenths and hundredths, and add a tenths fraction to a hundredths fraction by renaming the tenths first. Then they write fractions as decimals in place value charts and back again, count dimes and pennies as tenths and hundredths of a dollar, and compare two decimals with >, =, or < by writing both as hundredths. A self-checking code page and a Mixed Review finish the packet.
What's inside
- p. 3
Tenths and Hundredths on a Grid
Write each shaded part as tenths and as hundredths.
- p. 4
Equal Tenths and Hundredths
Write the missing number to make the two fractions equal.
- p. 5
Add Tenths and Hundredths
Rename the tenths as hundredths, then add.
- p. 6
Adding in Stories
Rename the tenths, add the two parts, and show your thinking in the box.
- p. 7
Tenths as Decimals
Write each fraction in the place value chart, then as a decimal.
- p. 8
Hundredths as Decimals
Write each amount as a fraction and as a decimal.
- p. 9
Money: Dimes and Pennies
Write each amount as money and as a fraction of a dollar.
- p. 10
Compare with Grids
Write each grid as a decimal, then compare with >, =, or <.
- p. 11
Compare Two Decimals
Write both numbers as hundredths, then compare with >, =, or <.
- p. 12
Compare in Stories
Write both numbers as hundredths, compare with >, =, or <, then answer.
- p. 13
Decimal Code
Write each missing number, then use the code to spell the word.
- p. 14
Mixed Review
Use any strategy from this packet.
Think: 0.5 covers 50 squares and 0.48 covers 48, so 0.5 > 0.48.

Who it's for
Grade 4 classes in the decimals unit. Denominators are 10 and 100, decimals stop at the hundredths place, and every comparison is between two decimals that refer to the same whole, with an item on each comparison page about why that matters. There is no decimal addition or subtraction and no word names for decimals.
See the format first, free. The free Grade 4 Math Sampler has one practice page from four units, each with its answer key.
