2. Create a new post that continues the story

3. Your post should include:

A sentence that uses a decimal number (like “I bought 3.25 pounds of apples”)

An explanation of how you used the decimal in your sentence.

Show understanding of adding and subtracting decimals by creating a new decimal at the end of your story.

Tips:

Make sure your sentence connects to the previous part of the story

Be creative with how you incorporate decimals

Check that your decimal makes sense in context (use realistic numbers)

We first explored decimals in our flipped classroom lesson during digital learning week. Remember when we discovered that fractions and decimals are connected—and that decimals help us represent parts of a whole using place value? We learned how to read, write, compare, and even solve problems using decimals!

Base Ten Blocks (also known as "Base 10 Blocks" and "Place Value Blocks") is an online mathematical manipulative that helps students learn addition, subtraction, number sense, place value and counting. It lets them investigate how to regroup and solve problems with whole numbers and eventually fractions and decimals.

Overall, Base Ten Blocks provides a visual foundation for the abstract algorithms we want students to use as they grow.
