This teaching slides resource introduces hundredths by building directly on students' understanding of tenths. Using a hundredths grid, students explore how each tenth can be divided into 10 equal parts to make hundredths, and learn to express decimals in both tenths and hundredths using a place value chart.
Slides move from the foundational concept — every tenth is made up of 10 hundredths — through to reading shaded grids and expressing what they represent in decimal notation and in words, with both a tenths-and-hundredths form and a hundredths-only form shown for each example.
What's included:
Teaching slides establishing that one whole divides into 10 tenths, and each tenth divides into 10 hundredths
Guided example slides showing how collections of hundredths regroup into tenths and hundredths
5 practice slides: identify the decimal represented by a shaded hundredths grid, write in decimal notation and in words (both tenths-and-hundredths and hundredths-only forms)
