Adding tenths and hundredths - Fractions - 4th Grade

For educators and homeschoolers searching for a complete way for students to become proficient  with adding 1/10th and 1/100ths, this resource will be a valuable asset!

Designed with ease of use in mind, it offers no-prep scaffolded worksheets with and without visual support divided into 11 sets from ensuring a good foundation to challenges.

The first six sets provide practice for preparation for the core work. Using the visual model of squares divided into 10 and 100 parts, students are asked to:

• find the fractions colored in (Set 1)

• color in the fraction indicated (Set 2)

In Set 3 students practice looking for the visual connection between equivalent fractions given in 1/10ths and 1/100ths. Seeing 1/10 is the same as 10/100. is a pivotal point in the whole process.

There is a simple Teaching Page included in the pack which you can use at  this points to show the connection between 10ths and 100ths both visually and numerically (multiplying numerator and denominator by 10) which will prepare your students for Set 4 which has purely numerical questions. 

Sets 5 and 6 provide practice adding 1/100ths with and without visual support

Sets 7, 8 & 9 are the core of the topic - adding a mix of 1/10ths & 100ths. 

• Set 7  - adding these fractions with visual support

• Set 8  - numerical questions with an intermediate step where students must show their conversion of the tenth fraction to a hundreth before adding

• Set 9  - numerical questions  

Challenges
For the students who mastered the above there are two extra sets of worksheets

• Set 10 - adding 3 fractions with a mix of tenths and hundredths

• Set 11 - equations with 3 fractions BUT students have to find the value of one of the addends.   

How many worksheets in each set ?
As many as you need.
A standout feature is the worksheet randomization. With a single click, educators can generate an entirely new set of questions, making it a renewable resource for the entire school year. Be it for classwork, revision, or homework, adaptability ensures students achieve proficiency in the topic.

Each worksheet concludes with an automatically generated answer key on its second page, offering a quick reference point for educators. And if there's ever a need for a last-minute lesson or work for a substitute teacher, these sheets are a reliable fallback.
