Children will need access to Base 10 (or Diennes) and 0-9 dice for this activity.
My year 5 class were struggling with decimals so I made up this simple activity, and had quite a lot of success with it - children fed back that it helped their understanding.
First children use 0-9 dice to generate a decimal and record it on the sheet.
Next, they make the number using Base 10 and draw it on the sheet.
Finally, they place their decimal on a 0-9 numberline. They should record it as a fraction and a decimal at this point.
Children repeated this activity three or four times until they felt confident with their understanding.
It is differentiated so that children can work with tenths, hundredths or thousandths.
