This worksheet is aimed at those working at age expected.

Extra reasoning sheet attached. The answer sheets are attached.

Using a hundred piece of base 10 as 1 whole, a ten piece as a tenth and a one piece as a hundredth shows children that they can exchange, for example, 10 tenths for 1 whole, or 10 hundredths for 1 tenth. A hundred square where each part represents 1 hundredth, or 0.01, can also help children to see the relationship between a hundredth, a tenth and a whole.

Children make decimal numbers using place value counters in a place value chart and read and write the numbers, as well as working out the value of each digit in the number. They also explore partitioning decimal numbers in a variety of ways.

When reading or writing a number, children may say

“one point twenty-four” instead of “one point two four”.

When there are hundredths but no tenths in a number, children may forget to include the zero placeholder in the tenths column.
