1. State Standard(s):
5.NBT.3a - Read, write, and compare decimals to thousandths. Read and write decimals to
thousandths using base-ten numerals, number names, and expanded form, e.g., 347.392 = 3 x
100 + 4 x 10 + 7 x 1 + 3 x (1/10) + 9 x (1/100) + 2 x (1/1000).
5.NBT.3b - Read, write, and compare decimals to thousandths. Compare two decimals to
thousandths based on meanings of the digits in each place, using >, =, and < symbols to record
the results of comparisons.
2. Teaching Model(s):
Direct
Cooperative
DOK
3. Objective(s):
Monday
o SW name decimal fractions in expanded, unit, and word forms by applying place
value reasoning.
Tuesday
o SW read and write decimals using base ten numerals, word form, and expanded
form.
Wednesday
o SW compare decimal and fractions to the thousandths using like units, and
express comparisons with >, <, =.
Thursday
o SW compare decimals to the thousandths using like units, and express
comparisons with >,<, =.
o SW place decimal numbers on a number line and order them.
Friday

with >, <, =.

Knowledge Targets
I know place value to the thousandths.

I can read and write numbers in word form.

I can write numbers in expanded form using unit fractions.
I can write decimals as a fraction.

Reasoning Targets
I understand decimal equivalents (e.g. 0.8 = 0.80 = 0.800 = 8/10 = 80/100).
I know how to multiply a whole number by a unit fraction.
I understand to compare like place value positions
I understand that if both decimals have the same digit in the tenths place, then they must
compare the hundredths, and if those digits are the same, they much compare the
thousandths.
Product Targets
I can write numbers in expanded form incorporating unit fractions and decimals.
Performance Targets
I can use multiple strategies to compare decimals.
