Color the Base Ten Value

Worksheet Description

This worksheet contains a set of decimal numbers, each with one digit underlined, and provides a row of place value labels including hundreds, thousandths, tenths, hundredths, and ones. Students are instructed to color in the label that corresponds to the place value of the underlined digit in each number. The activity includes a variety of decimals to give students practice with different place values. At the bottom of the worksheet, there is an area for students to reflect on how well they did by coloring one of three emoticon faces ranging from smiling to frowning.

The worksheet is designed to help students practice identifying and understanding the place values in decimal numbers. By focusing on the underlined digit in each number, students learn to pay attention to the position of digits and their corresponding value. This coloring task also adds a visual element to the learning process, making it more engaging and memorable. The self-assessment section at the bottom encourages students to be self-reflective and to think critically about their level of understanding and confidence with the material.
