MA.4.NSO.1.5: Plot, order and compare decimals up to the hundredths
Plot, order and compare decimals up to the hundredths.
The Florida's B.E.S.T. Standards for Mathematics outcome MA.4.NSO.1.5 (Number Sense and Operations) for Grade 4 says: “Plot, order and compare decimals up to the hundredths.” This Fieldbook unit teaches it hands-on, with everyday materials and a printable teacher guide and student sheet for every lesson. Official wording: Florida's B.E.S.T. Standards for Mathematics.
Fair Shares: Fractions and Decimals Grades 3–4
Is half always the same size? Where does three-quarters stand? Why is 3/4 + 2/4 not 5/8? Who jumped further, 1.4 m or 1.35 m? Four hands-on lessons where students fold, stand on a giant number line, measure recipes and measure their own jumps to make sense of fractions and decimals.
- Who jumped further, 1.4 m or 1.35 m? 50–60 min
Students do standing long jumps, measure them to the centimetre and write them as decimals of a metre, then settle an argument: is 1.35 m further than 1.4 m because 35 is bigger than 4? Students explain tenths and hundredths with a metre stick, write them as fractions and decimals, and compare decimals correctly.
