LET'S TAKE A MINUTE TO REMEMBER

REGULAR PLACE VALUES AND PLACE

NAMES FOR WHOLE NUMBER:
CAN YOU NAME THE PLACE VALUE
ON THE RIGHT OF THE DECIMAL
POINT?

0
LET'S LOOK AT THE PLACE VALUES IN
NUMBERS... THIS IS HOW THESE GUYS
GOT THEIR NAMES:
FIRST OF ALL, HOW DO YOU READ
AND SAY REGULAR WHOLE
NUMBERS?

HERE'S A LITTLE REVIEW:

"five hundred twenty-

three"
(Notice that we didn't say "and twenty-three!")
WE'RE SAVING THE BIG "AND" FOR
THE DECIMAL POINT!
TIME TO TRY!!!
 READ:
4.5 Four “and” five tenths
5.67 Five “and” sixty-seven
hundredths
6.789 Six “and” seven hundred
eighty- nine thousandths
 WRITE:
 Seven “and” twenty-five hundredt hs 7.25
 Twenty-two “and” five thousandth s 22.005
Decimal
Point 1/10’s 1/100’s

Tenths Hundredths
CAN YOU GRAPH .3?
Now that we can graph our decimal
number, can you answer this?

 Which is greater than?

0.3 or 0.03
HOW TO GRAPH .3 (OR… “THREE
TENTHS”)
HOW TO GRAPH .03 (OR… “THREE
HUNDREDTHS”)
SO…. WHICH IS GREATER THAN?

.3 .03
LET’S TRY IT AGAIN!
 Which is greater than?

.6 or .08
 Group 1: Graph .6

 Group 2: Graph .08

 We will compare the graphs to figure out the

answer!
SO…. WHICH IS GREATER THAN?

.6 .08
TIME TO TEST!!
 Use your counters and graphing paper!!!

GROUP 1
Which is greater than?
 .56 or .09

GROUP 2
Which is less than?
 .34 or .09
Let’scheck if your
answers are correct!!!
GROUP 1: WHICH IS GREATER THAN?

.56 .09
GROUP 2: WHICH IS LESS THAN?

.34 .09
