Decimals can be tricky for some students. To help, I use re-teaching as needed and regular review. An easy teaching resource to use for review and re-teaching are task cards. This post shares a free set of decimal task cards that reviews 5th grade decimal skills, along with ideas for using this decimals review with 4th and 6th grade students.
Using the Free Decimals Review Task Cards
These free decimal task cards can be used in a variety of ways depending on your grade level, your standards or instructional needs, and your students needs. Here are some suggestions:
4th Grade Math Teachers
- Enrichment – Use these task cards to enrich or challenge your students who are ready for more advanced decimal skills. You can pick and choose the ones that you think are most appropriate for your students.
5th Grade Math Teachers
- Daily Review – Use these decimal task cards as a spiral review after teaching your unit. Project or show a task card and have your students discuss the problem and then answer the question/task. This could be done whole group if all of your students need the review or it could be done in a small group setting. You could even do more than one card each day.
- Unit Review – These decimals task cards are great to use for review before you give your decimal assessment. They can be used for SCOOT style review or an Around the Room style review. You could even place them in a math center for your students to complete the days leading up to the assessment.
- Re-teaching – Use the task cards to re-teach and remediate for students still struggling after decimal instruction.
6th Grade Math Teachers
- Review or Re-teaching – These decimal task cards be used to review 5th grade decimal skills before diving into related 6th grade skills. These could also be used to support any re-teaching you need to do.
