Explore ways of representing decimals using mathematical notation and visual tools. Match a decimal fraction between 0 and 4 such as 2.6. Adjust two sets of units on a range of visual scales and other representations. Work with a random selection of two of these representations: common fraction, number line, counting frame and dial. Match at least three decimals with each tool. This learning object is one in a series of nine objects.
Objective
1. Students identify and use decimal fractions in representations, some of which are modeled on real objects.
2. Students read decimal notations and manipulate a range of visual representations to match given decimal fractions.
3. Students interpret, compare, match and manipulate a range of decimal fraction representations, including pictorial and symbolic forms.
