Lesson Plan: 5.NBT.A.3a Forms of Place Values(This lesson should be adapted, including instructional time, to meet the needs of your students.)

Background InformationContent/Grade Level Number and Operations Base Ten / 5

Unit/Cluster Read and write numbers to the thousandths

Essential Questions/Enduring Understandings Addressed in the Lesson

How does one place value compare to another place value? What patterns can we identify in the place value of numbers?How does the position of a number determine its value?What is the purpose of the decimal place?

Place value has a direct relationship to the value of a number.Decimals are parts of whole numbers.

Standards Addressed in This Lesson 5.NBT.A.3a Read and write decimals to thousandths using base-ten numerals, number names, and expanded form.

It is critical that the Standards for Mathematical Practices are incorporated in ALL lesson activities throughout the unit as appropriate. It is not the expectation that all eight Mathematical Practices will be evident in every lesson. The Standards for Mathematical Practices make an excellent framework on which to plan your instruction. Look for the infusion of the Mathematical Practices throughout this unit.

Lesson Topic Read and write decimals using base-ten numerals, number names and expanded form.

Relevance/Connections 5.NBT.A.1 Recognize that in a multi-digit number, a digit in one place represents 10 times as

much as it represents in the place to its right and 1

10 of what it represents in the place

to its left.

Page 1 of 24

5.NBT.A.2 Explain patterns in the number of zeros of the product when multiplying a number by powers of 10, and explain patterns in the placement of the decimal point when a decimal is multiplied or divided by a power of 10. Use whole-number exponents to denote powers of 10.

Student Outcomes Student will be able to name a number, write it as a base-ten numeral and write it in expanded form.

Prior Knowledge Needed to Support This Learning

4. NBT.A.1 Recognize that in a multi-digit whole number, a digit in one place represents ten times what it represents in the place to its right.

4. NF.A.2 Compare two fractions with different numerators and different denominators, e.g., by creating common denominators or numerators, or by comparing to a benchmark

fraction such as 12 . Recognize that comparisons are valid only when the two fractions

refer to the same whole. Record the results of comparisons with symbols >, =, or <, and justify the conclusions, e.g., by using a visual fraction model.

Method for determining student readiness for the lesson

This should be done the day before the lesson if at all possible.

Hand each student a decimal card. (See Attachment #1) Students will use the two numbers they are given to illustrate them in 4 different ways.

(See Attachment #2) Remind students that each grid equals one whole. After a few minutes ask students to find the other students that had their same numbers.

Compare answers, discuss differences with each other. Then have students make a final copy with 4 answers that the group thinks are correct. Discuss these with the entire class—either tape them up or use document camera or any other means of sharing with the whole group.

Page 2 of 24

Questions to ask the students:

What do all of the groups have in common? Which number was larger in value? How do you know? Which group had the largest number? Which group had the smallest number? How

can you prove that? How do you read your number in words? (Example 0.89 would be Eighty Nine

Hundredths.) Name a number that is between your two numbers in value.

Teachers will then discuss the importance of the o decimal and place value. (Refer to

Motivation activity.) Teacher should guide students to make the connection that the greater the place value the greater the value of the number. Teacher should also guide students to make the connection that moving to the right one place is division by ten and moving to the left one place is multiplication by ten; moving to the right two places is division by 100 and moving to the left two places is multiplication by 100, etc.

Then ask students to fill in the number 617.951 below the first number that they wrote in the Place Value Chart. Ask a student to show her answer to the class and explain why she wrote what she did.

Is this number larger or smaller than the first number? Why? How would you write this using > or < symbols?

What about 617.591? Is it larger or smaller than 617.951? Why? How would you write this using > or < symbols?

Using word form, the teacher will write a number on the board, smartboard or document camera. Students, using standard form (make sure students understand this terminology), will write that number on their place value chart. Teacher should extend into the thousandths place value.

o ‘Student A’ creates a new number (written to the thousandths place) in standard form and then says their number to ‘Student B.’ ‘Student B’ should be able to create the same number using their place value chart. The goal is to make the connection between word form, standard form, place value and value. Activity should be repeated with ‘Student B’ giving ‘Student A’ an example.

o Take a few examples from the students and have them say their number and write them on the board.

Teacher should stress the importance of the place value of each number. This will lead into expanded form. Using a student response, the teacher should model and explain expanded form.

Teacher uses the previous activity’s exit slip as a warm-up. Teacher should review the correct and incorrect answers. Teacher should allow time for questions / answers.

Using the strategy from the warm up, be sure to emphasize how to write the place values after the decimal.

Example: 452.896 =(4 ×100 )+(5 ×10 )+ (2×1 )+ (8× 0.1 )+(9 ×0.01 )+(6×0.001)

Teacher gives the students a new number to write in their place value chart. (Note – new number should be extended into the thousandths place value) Students then write the number in expanded form by multiplying by the place values, using the example above. Students compare their answer with their neighbor to ensure understanding. Students then create their own example to practice with their neighbor.

Teacher takes students examples and has students write them on the board. The students will explain how they arrived at their answer. Teacher will then use this to lead class discussion. Repeat several times to ensure students’ understanding.

Teacher will then begin ‘matching game’ with students. See example of ‘matching game’ below. (Attachment #4) ‘Student A’ will be given a card with a number in word form, and will be asked to find ‘Student B’ who has the same number in standard form. Once the match is made, students will work together to write the number using expanded form. Teacher should circulate and offer assistance. The activity will be repeated several times, have the students switch cards throughout lesson.

EXIT SLIP: teacher writes a number which has a value in the thousandths place, on the board and asks the students to write the number in word form, standard form, and expanded form.

This promotes expression and communication.Principle III: Engagement is present through the Gallery Walk. Students will foster collaboration and community through communication with their classmates. This task allows for active participation, personal response, evaluations and reflections.

Teacher uses exit slip from activity 2 and discusses correct answers. Teacher then writes a new decimal with a value less than one on the board. (e.g 0.72 or 0.357) Teacher asks the students to represent the number in as many ways possible. Teacher should not list the forms, but allow time for students to write out in word form, standard form, and expanded form. (Note – some students will think of fractional form) Teacher then collects answers and have random students write their answer on the board.

Ask students to write their own example of a decimal less than one and repeat activity with their neighbor. While students are working, teacher writes 452.893 in expanded form using decimal on the board. Teacher then asks students, “Is there a way to write this number in expanded form using fractions?”

Teacher will use the decimal form to make the connection between decimals and fractions. Teacher says/writes the decimal using tenths, hundredths, thousandths and asked if a student can write each place value as a fraction. Teacher should then give another example and have students repeat the same activity. (Note – all students should now use the fractional form)Allow time for students to collaborate and design their own answer. Ask the class how these answers compare to decimals.

Example:

452.89=(4 ×100 )+(5 ×10 )+ (2 ×1 )+(8× 110 )+¿)

Teacher then focuses on 0.89, and analyzes the place value of each number, states 8 is the tenths

place which is 8× 110 and 9 is the hundredths

place which is 9× 1100 . Teacher then adds 5 to the

end and then allows time for students to solve on own. Teacher remodels the expanded form as

.Teacher then posts another number on

the board and has students complete on their own.

Teacher posts five different numbers, (Attachment #5), up to the thousandths place value, written in different forms, around the room. Students work independently as they complete a gallery walk filling in all missing forms of the five posted numbers. When completed, students compare answers with their neighbor or group members at their seats.

This time is allotted to work with students that are struggling with any of the previous three activities. Students that have mastered the concepts can work with one another repeating any of the activities done over the previous three activities.

CLOSURE: students write down any questions or concerns they are still having with any of the forms. This will be used to begin Activity 4.
