TOPIC 10 Decimal Numbers Strand: Number Strand unit: Decimals 404 424 425 426 Identify place value of whole numbers and decimals to 2 places. Express tenths and hundredths as fractions and decimals. Identify place value of whole numbers and decimals to 2 places and write in expanded form. Order decimals on the number line. Looking back: What the 3rd class programme covered 1. Writing tenths in decimal form. 2. Ordering decimals (0.1, 0.2, 0.3, etc.) on a number line. Maths skills used in this topic 1. Applying and problem-solving: Apply mathematical concepts and processes, and plan and implement solutions to problems, in a variety of contexts. 2. Reasoning: Reason, investigate and hypothesise with patterns and relationships in mathematics. 100 square (10 x 10), number line, abacus Vocabulary Hundredth, expand, necessary, unnecessary Teaching points Importance of place value: 1. Just as 79 and 709 have different values, so too 0.07 and 0.7. 2. In which number has 8 the greater value: 0.83 or 0.98? Some children might incorrectly choose 0.98 because this number is greater than 0.83. 3. Unnecessary zeroes: With whole numbers, a zero preceding non-zero numerals is unnecessary (08 = 8). These might be termed leading zeroes. With decimals the opposite is true (0.80 = 0.8). These might be termed trailing zeroes. Note: While trailing zeroes are not strictly necessary in decimals, they are sometimes required by convention. For example with money, 6 euro and 30 cent will be written as €6.30 (and not as €6.3). Furthermore in 5th class and later, the student may be asked to round a number such as 73.402 to 2 decimal places. The correct answer would be 73.40 (and not 73.4). Fans: 1 2 3 Show 10 as a decimal 0.1, repeat with 10 , 10 , etc. Show 1 cent as a decimal. Then 2 cent, 3 cent, etc. Leading up to 10 cent, 20 cent, etc. Target board 10: Show each decimal number as euro, e.g. 0.95= 95 cent. What must I add to each decimal number to make the next whole number? Target board 5: Change each fraction number to a decimal number. Topic suggestions 1. Use 100 squares to introduce the idea of one hundredth. Begin by dividing the 100 squares 1 into 10 rows, each of which will be 10 of the whole. Then progress to hundredths. Point out 1 the connection between tenths and hundredths – there are 10 hundredths in 10 . 2. Look for examples of things that are divided into 100 equal parts: euro and cent, metre and centimetre. 3. Decimal bingo: There are suggested bingo sheets online (you will only need a few photocopies of the page). These are unique bingo cards. Give each child one card. Call out decimal questions (make sure to keep a note of the questions you call). All answers should be range from 0.01 to 1 unit. If the answer to the question is on the child’s card they cross it out. Play ‘first to have a line’ and ‘first to have a full house’. Sample questions: 1 What decimal number is the same as 4 ? What decimal number is 0.01 less than 0.8? What decimal number lies between 0.58 and 0.6? Activity A Decimals in the world around us: Each of the pictures has a decimal point. The pictures should serve to open discussion on how decimals are everywhere around us. They enable us to accurately describe, measure and count. Discuss each of the pictures in turn. Ask the children to cite other instances of where decimals are in everyday use. Differentiation Lower attainers: See, separate activity page. Higher attainers: ‘Skip’ decimal counting: 1. Up: Starting at 0.8 count up, 0.03 at a time until the value is greater than 1 (0.83, 0.86, 0.89). Try intervals of 0.02, 0.04, 0.05, 0.09, 0.11. 2. Down: Starting at 1.3, count down, 0.04 at a time until the value is less than 1 (1.26, 1.22, 1.18, 1.14, 1.10, 1.06, 1.02, 0.98). Try other intervals and starting points. 55 Topic Topic 10 10 1.

Each is a different way of partitioning a unit. As fractions are generally easier to visualise, they usually precede decimals in the order of learning. Integration SESE Geography: Investigation skills, many scientific and geographical investigations involve interpreting readouts from electronic displays (dials, meters, etc.), some of which include a decimal point (e.g. weighing scales, fuel pump, electricity meter, electronic timer and range finder). Maths at home/parental involvement Look at the electricity/gas/water meters – does the display have a decimal point? Examine the milometer in the car – does it show 1 tenth of a kilometre (sometimes in different colour)?
