Overview
Learning goals: Students will be able to compare two decimals to the thousandths using
the >, =, and < symbols correctly.
Standards and benchmarks:
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.5.NBT.A.3.B
Compare two decimals to thousandths based on meanings of the digits in each place,
using >, =, and < symbols to record the results of comparisons.
Choice of skill and reason for choice: Students have been working on reading and writing
decimals and they are now ready to learn how to compare them. Students took a Quick
Check yesterday and only 2 out of 54 students knew how to properly order the numbers
Grouping of children and reason for grouping: The majority of this lesson will be done
individually because students are getting a quiz back that they must reflect on their own
mistakes. This is also new information that students will be interacting with personal
whiteboards to demonstrate.
Materials: Elmo board, Quick check, white boards, markers, paper towel, half sheets of
paper, comparison worksheet, ClassDojo on my cell phone

i. Thousandths place
1. We havent specifically talked about thousandths but I
think you can use your previous knowledge of whole
numbers to

(15mins)
Assessment Plan
I will know the students understand how to compare decimals when they can all
demonstrate the correct answer on their white boards and explain to me how zeros can
and cannot affect the value.
Reflection
The students responded well to this lesson. They enjoyed watching a peer come up to
teach the method. This method will take practice but later they will make posters that
explain the process and those will be hung in the room. I like having time for student to
work on the homework at the end of class because I can circulate the room and assist
those that I know need more help and allow the more advanced kids to do more
accelerated work.
