Year 4 | Decimals Knowledge Organiser – Tenths and Hundredths
This Year 4 decimals knowledge organiser supports pupils in securing key understanding of tenths and hundredths using clear place value models. It brings together fraction, decimal and place value representations to help pupils see how decimal numbers are constructed and how they change when divided by 10 and 100.
The organiser includes visual examples of tenths and hundredths on number lines, place value charts and Gattegno charts. It also models dividing by 10 and dividing by 100, showing how digits move between ones, tenths and hundredths, including decimals within 1 and decimals greater than 1.
