Tenths

Count up and down in tenths; recognise that tenths arise from dividing an object into 10 equal parts and from dividing one-digit numbers or quantities by 10

Teaching Table

Set out your lesson

Practise the bounded task in Tenths; see exact limits before inferring broader coverage.

Activity

Understands equal parts; do not treat unequal pieces as tenths.

Policy

Exact directed source edges retained; earlier authorship is not learner attainment.

Materials
  • These supplied stage cards

  • Scrap paper and pencil; oral/pointing response where appropriate

Sequence
  • Read readiness and decide on support without treating prerequisite authoring as learner readiness.

  • Open Show first and explain its model.

  • Use Guided Try with support and its separate adult key.

  • Close Show and guided keys before Try, unless this Try is explicitly supported.

  • Reflect on an actual attempt, including help used.

No Printer

Use the supplied screen cards; copying the exact task to paper is optional, not required.

Privacy

Use only invented scenarios and optional anonymous local notes. Do not request names, photos, family finances, medical data, accounts or uploads. Stop uncomfortable physical activity.

Use the complete materials on screen or print only the current sheet. Keep adult guidance out of learner view. Retain an earlier model only when the current step supplies it as context.

Teaching limits and safe use

These are finite task opportunities, not proof of mastery. Record what was attempted and what support was used.

  • Equal strips and small sharing examples; no general decimal operations.

Check understanding

  • Count: one tenth, two tenths, three tenths … up to ten tenths (one whole)
  • Show that dividing a shape into 10 equal parts gives tenths
  • Explain that 3 ÷ 10 = 3/10
“If your child splits a chocolate bar with 10 equal pieces, can they tell you each piece is one tenth — and count up from 1/10 to 10/10 in order?”
