Here are some tips for using each version of this decimal place value chart:

Color Version: Print a copy on cardstock for each student, and then laminate it or slip it into a plastic sleeve. Provide students with a dry erase marker and eraser, and now they can use this chart again and again in your decimal lessons!

Black and White Version: This version is ideal if you want to save ink or don’t have a color printer handy. It also works well if you want students to turn their work in to you – as an exit ticket, for example. 

Utilizing Our Decimals Place Value Chart

This decimals place value chart has so many uses! Not only is it a perfect match for the slides on our Comparing and Ordering Decimals PPT (linked below), but here are some ways it works as a standalone resource: 

• Comparing Decimals: Students write the two decimals into the chart, and use the place values to see which decimal is larger or smaller. They can write a comparative expression using <, >, or =  at the bottom of the chart. 
• Ordering Decimals: Students write each decimal into the chart. Then they can label each decimal from largest to smallest or smallest to largest by putting a number in the “Labels” column indicating if that decimal comes first, second, third, etc. 
• Adding and Subtracting Decimals: Students can use the chart to write the decimals being added or subtracted into the top lines, using the column to keep their numbers lined up correctly. Students can then perform the operation, writing their answers in the next line.
