Worksheet Description

This worksheet is designed to help students practice counting and combining ones and tenths. It features several sections, each with a set of circles divided into “Ones” and “Tenths.” Students are instructed to count the number of filled circles under each category and then write the combined total in a decimal format in the space provided. At the bottom, there is a self-assessment section where students can rate their own performance on the worksheet with a happy or sad face.

The worksheet aims to teach students the basics of decimal values, specifically the concept of tenths. By visually representing ones and tenths as separate groups of circles, it helps students understand how to count and combine them to form decimal numbers. The activity encourages the development of place value understanding and introduces the students to decimal notation. Additionally, the self-assessment at the end helps students reflect on their learning and understand their own progress.
