Tenths - Worksheet

This set of educational resources provides worksheets focused on the concept of tenths, suitable for enhancing students' understanding of fractions. The first worksheet, titled 'Tenths Worksheet 1', poses a straightforward question: "What fraction of the whole is shaded?" This task encourages pupils to identify and write down the fraction representing the shaded portion of various shapes, which are divided into ten equal parts, thereby reinforcing their grasp of tenths as a fractional unit.

The second worksheet, known as 'Tenths Worksheet 2', takes a different approach by asking students to engage with number sequences. The activity involves counting in tenths and requires learners to complete a series of number sequences accordingly. This helps to solidify their knowledge of the decimal system and the place value of tenths. Meanwhile, 'Tenths Worksheet 3' dives deeper into place value and the relationship between fractions and decimals. It includes tasks such as filling in place value charts for given fractions and mixed numbers, identifying fractions and mixed numbers from place value charts, and interpreting visual representations to determine the corresponding fraction and decimal number. These exercises are designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of tenths, both as fractions and as part of the decimal system.
