This number sense lesson focuses on ordering decimal numbers. The lesson includes research-based strategies and questions that help prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students read the problem and line up the decimal numbers by place value. Then, they compare each digit (starting from the left) and if they have the same value, move to the place value to the right. If they have a different value, determine which digit has the least or greatest value. Finally, students order the decimal numbers. In addition to the lesson, there are four pages of Independent Practice and review with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items.

This number sense lesson focuses on ordering fractions and mixed numbers on a number line. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students place each fraction or mixed number (from a group of four) on the number line one at a time by reading each number aloud, determining the sign and value of the whole number or fraction, and determining the denominator and numerator. Finally, they order the numbers from least to greatest or greatest to least using the number line. In addition to the lesson, there are sixteen pages of Independent Practice and Periodic Reviews with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items.
