• 5 lesson ideas for using these materials

The decimal place value charts can be used to introduce the decimal system in relation to whole numbers. They can also be used with Montessori

decimal cubes or numeral cards to learn how to say decimal numbers, and add or subtract decimals. Additionally, you can use the labels in various

lessons to introduce the names and values of the places. Children can use these materials independently or with another child as a center activity

or on the math shelf. The charts could be printed and written on as practice sheets for writing decimal numbers, and adding and subtracting

decimals, or laminated for reusable practice sheets.

The colors of the place values correspond to Montessori place value colors. The decimal places are lighter shades of the whole number place value colors to represent that place value being broken down into more and more pieces. For example, the tens place is royal blue, the tenths place is

light blue (tens being broken down into smaller pieces) and the ten-thousandths place is even lighter blue, (indicating even smaller pieces).
