Decimal Numbers and their Names (to Thousandths) Card Sort Activity

This material can be used as a card sort or memory game where the decimal number value is matched to the corresponding decimal name (e.g. “five tenths” and “.5” are a match). The purpose is to practice saying the number’s decimal name and be able to associate the words with the numeric representation.

Material includes:
- Decimal place value strips with numeric values and place value names (to be used as a reference for the card sort or memory game)
- Three sets of differentiated number/name cards – each set is increasingly more challenging by adding another place value or whole numbers

Set 1: 15 numbers and corresponding name cards in tenths and hundredths places
Set 2: 15 numbers and corresponding name cards in hundredths and thousandths places
Set 3: 15 numbers and corresponding name cards with whole numbers and tenths, hundredths, and thousandths places
-----Two versions of each of the three sets is provided
------- black and white and colored (each set has a different color border)
-- Recording sheet
-- Blank cards (a few extra cards for students to create their own numbers and write the names, or challenge a friend to do so)
-- Answer key
