Instruction/Classroom Activities:

Small Group Instruction:

For the small group instruction, read the book, Piece = Part = Portion: Fractions = Decimals =

Percents by Scott Gifford to the group. As you read through the book, discuss how each the fraction,

decimal, and percent are determined of what is illustrated in the photo. Also, create a T-chart and as

you go through the book chart the fraction and equivalent decimal value.

Guided Practice:

For the guided practice, use the T-chart created in the small group instruction to emphasize place

value. Introduce the place values of the decimal number. Show a decimal number such as 0.25 and

have the students identify the place value of the 2 and then of the 5. Continue this practice for the

rest of the numbers on the T-chart or add additional numbers for the students to use. Use

PowerPoint, Decimal Chart.

Stations/Centers:

• Station 1: Students will determine place value of different numbers. Using the document,

Decimal Place Value, the students will identify the place value by putting a clothespin on the

circled number that is in the place value requested. For example the card may have the number

1.217 and the question will ask which number is in the hundredths place. Students will put a

clothespin on the number 1.
