thing. We may eat a part of a sandwich or
spend part of a dollar at the store on a pair

It is important that we understand the
concept of a part of a whole. When we
have 1 whole object there are two
common ways to present its parts:
fractions and decimals

<Label the left half with 1/2>

<Use an arrow to point down on the
hundredths column of the table.>
<Pulse the numbers 5 and 8>
<Pulse the word hundredths>
<Display the decimal 0.324>
Fractions tell us how many parts a whole
is broken into, and how many of those
parts we have. Decimals show the value
by the place value of the digits.
The first step toward understanding
decimals is to have the ability to identify
the place value of each of the digits. Let’s
look at the decimal zero point five eight.
This decimal ends in the hundredths place
so we know that the value will be
expressed in hundredths. This decimal is
equal to fifty-eight hundredths.
Look at this decimal.
Question A
Stem: How would we name the value of the decimal 0.324?
A. Three hundred twenty-four hundredths
B. Three and twenty four hundredths

For instance, a lot of people love pizza.
<Effect - Image Fade Out>
A medium pizza has 8 pieces.
If you eat 2 of the pieces, you have eaten
two eighths of the pizza. But if we look at
the pizza again, we see that you ate one
out of four equal parts of the pizza.

There are some decimal values that we
hear often enough to know the equivalent
fractional value.
For example, we are aware that zeropoint-two-five is one fourth.

<Display the decimal 0.75>
We can also come to this conclusion by
thinking about money. Twenty-five cents is
equal to one quarter, which is another way
to say one fourth.
Using this concept allows us to know the
value of other decimals. Look at the
decimal zero point seven five.
Question C
Stem: Using prior knowledge, what is the fractional value of the decimal 0.75?

A. ¾

If we are being observant, we will find
similarities in the way that certain decimals
and fractions sound. If we say this decimal
out loud, it is three tenths. Now, say this
fraction out loud to yourself. It is also three
tenths.

We can use this practice to make a
connection to some decimals and their
fraction equivalents.
<Display the decimal 0.23>
Say this value out loud to yourself.
Question D
Stem: What fraction sounds the same as 0.23 when you read it out loud?
Answer Choices:
A. 23/10
B. 23/100
C. 23/1000

<Display “0.6”>
<Use an arrow to label the six with the
word “tenths” under the arrow>
<Pulse the 113>
<Pulse the word thousandths>
<Replace 0.6 with 0.113 and remove the
arrow>
<Pulse the three>
<Pulse the first one.>
Remember, we name a decimal by the
place value where it ends. This value ends
one digit to the left of the decimal. This
place value is the tenths place. We would
say this is six tenths.
Let’s look at the value zero point one one
three. We need to really focus on the last
place value to help us determine the
values name.
Three is the digit at the right-most end. But
what place value is it in?
<Pulse the second one.>
<Pulse the three again.>
<Bring up the word “thousandths” under
0.113.>
One place past the decimal is the tenths
place, two places past the decimal is the
hundredths place, so three places past the
decimal would be the thousandths place.
This decimal is named one-hundredthirteen thousandths.
<Display the decimal 0.59>
Look at this decimal. Where does it end?

Stem: How will we name the decimal 0.59?
A. Tenths

When dealing with fractions, the goal is to
make a value as easy to understand as
possible. Sometimes we can simplify a
fractional value and sometimes we cannot.
<Display a circle with three equal parts.>
Take a look at this circle. Two thirds are
<Shade in 2 out of the 3 parts.>
shaded in. The fraction that would
represent the part to whole for the circle is
two thirds. There is no simpler way to
describe this.

<Fade in 3 over the circle.>
<Replace previous circle with a circle that
has 9 parts.>
<Shade in 3 out of the 9 parts.>

9
<Fade in over the circle>

<Slide under the circle. Overlay the
9
outline of the same circle split in only three
parts.>

It’s important to make a fraction easier to
understand by simplifying it. Three of the
nine parts of this circle are shaded in so it
represents three ninths. If we take this
same circle and split it into three parts,
what part of the whole is now shaded in?
One out of three, which would be one
third. So three ninths is equal to one third,
which is simpler.

Let’s try again to use some information
that we already know to help us gather
new information. This will make
understanding decimals and fractions
easier.

<Display = to the right of 0.2>

<Display 0.4 below 0.2>
<Display an arrow pointing from 0.2 to 0.4
with x2. See reference image below.>
0.2
x2
Another decimal that we should be familiar
with is zero point two. This decimal is
equal to one fifth. We can use this fact to
help us find the value of certain other
decimals. Let’s look at zero point four.
This is two times the amount of zero point
two. So we have to find a decimal that is
two times one fifth. Two times one fifth is
two fifths.

Saying certain decimals and fractions out
loud can help us to convert them into
fractions.
<Display the decimal 0.7>
<Display = seven tenths to the right of
0.7>
<Display = 7/10 to the right of seven
tenths>
The decimal zero point seven is equal to
seven tenths. If we say the number seven
tenths out loud we can write that as a
fraction too. It looks like seven over ten.
What if you went to the grocery store to
buy some green beans to cook for dinner?
You grab a handful and put them in a bag.
When you get to the checkout counter,
you place the beans on a scale to see how
much it costs. The scale says zero point
six one.

How would this decimal be written as a
fraction? It is helpful to say it out loud
using the last place value. The one is two
places past the decimal, which is the
hundredths place. So as a fraction, zero
point six one equals sixty-one hundredths
or sixty-one over a hundred.
