Hello Kensukes and Potters! It’s Miss Stephens who will be planning your maths for this week!
We are going to be learning about decimals! But don’t worry we will take it easy to begin with!
Monday
First warm up! Try the flashback 4!

Decimals up to 2 decimal places
Remember tos:
I can recognise the value of each digit up to 2 decimal places.
I can read a place value chart with counters and tell the number it represents.
I can compare numbers up to 2 decimal places.
I can solve problems with numbers with 2 decimal places.
Vocabulary
Ones
Tens
Hundreds
Tenths
Hundredths
Place value chart
Place value counters
He will explain to you the importance of the place value of decimals.
Task 1 – fluency
Decimals can also be shown with place value coin cards. Here is an example:

This represents = 2 ones + 5 tenths + 4 hundredths = 2.54
Your turn! Have a go at some questions like this. There are three different levels for you to have a go!
Task 2- reasoning and problem solving
Now that you have mastered the idea of the place value of some decimal numbers, let’s try to really challenge you mathematicians.
Below is an example question.
You can use a place value chart to help you.
Work out the value of each letter first to then find the one that is different/ odd:

Here is my working:
A = 3 ones + 1 tenths + 15 hundredths
Add the decimals:
So 3 ones + 2 tenths + 5 hundredths = 3.25
B= three ones, 2 tenths and 5 hundredths = 3.25
A and B are the same
C= 3.25 so A, B and C are the same.
D= count the place value counters.
3 ones, 2 tenths, 6 hundredths = 3.26
D is the odd one out because it has 6 hundredths whereas A, B and C have 5 hundredths.
Your turn: Pick a level that works for you. Try to challenge yourselves at home.

Warm up with flashback 4!

Decimals up to 3 decimal places
Remember tos:
I can recognise the value of each digit up to 3 decimal places.
I can read a place value chart with counters and tell the number it represents.
I can compare numbers up to 3 decimal places.
I can solve problems with numbers with 3 decimal places.

Decimals can also be shown with place value coin cards and base ten equipment. Sometimes they will put both in a question. Here is an example:

My working:
However, this question is a bit tricky. When you count the digits there is more than 10 counters in a space. This can’t happen so a group of 10 will need to be carried to the next space over.
Look at the thousands first:
thousands = 3
Hundredths = 10 = this is a problem. These will all move to the tenths column. 10 hundredths = 1 tenth
Tenths = 15 + 1 tenth from the hundredths = 16 tenths. 10 of the tenths will move to the ones. 10 tenths = 1 one. This means we will have 6 tenths left.
| So the answer for this question is = 51.603 As a mixed number it would be 51 603 |
1000
Your turn! Have a go at some questions like this. There are three different levels for you to have a go!
Task 2- reasoning and problem solving
Now that you have mastered the idea of the place value of thousandths, let’s try to really challenge you mathematicians. Below is an example question with my working to help.

Today, we are going to look at numbers with decimals to 3 places. You can watch the videos from the past 2 days or can watch this one for another recap.
In this video, learn how to read/say decimal numbers to thousandths, as well as briefly seeing the connection between each place (tenths, hundredths, and tho...

Task 2- reasoning and problem solving
Now that you have mastered the idea of the place value of thousandths, let’s try to really challenge you! Be sure to read the questions carefully.

Let's warm up!

Today, we are going to look at multiplying numbers by 10, 100 and 1000. We do a lot of this in our CLIC lessons so you should be familiar with this. If not, don’t worry, I will walk you through it!
Remember tos:
I can use a place value chart to put my number in the chart.
I know that I multiply by 10 by moving the digits 1 place to the left.
I know that I multiply by 100 by moving the digits 2 places to the left.
I know that I multiply by 1000 by moving the digits 3 places to the left.
I can solve problems with numbers with multiplying digits by 10, 100 and 1000.
