Introduction to Decimals (PowerPoint and 3 worksheets)

A resource I’ve created when introducing my class to decimals. It begins by introducing the definition of the word decimal and then uses diagrams and images to explain this further. After teaching about tenths and hundredths, the children then complete a worksheet where they are identifying tenths and hundredths in decimal numbers with numbers with up to 2.d.p. We then move onto converting fractions into decimals, comparing decimals using <, > and = and ordering decimal numbers. There are three worksheets to support this lesson. This worked really well with my class and I now have a very confident group of children who enjoy learning about fractions!
