Maths No Problem

Chapter 8 Decimals: Lesson 9    Comparing & Ordering Fractions

Textbook pages     28    29    30      Workbook pages   17     18

Lesson Notes: Ask pupils how can we determine which decimal is more or less? Can we use number discs to show this? Show them how number discs can be used to compare the decimals. When using this method, take the opportunity to guide pupils to conclude that we should compare the tenths first as tenths have a greater value than hundredths. How about a number line? Model how a number line can be drawn to make the comparison. Use the symbols > or < when writing the comparison on the board.

Let pupils play the game in pairs. Provide them with charts and number discs for making the comparisons. Ask them to write the comparison using > or <. After a few rounds, pupils will be able to conclude that once the tenths are determined, they can tell which number is greater or smaller.
