Looking for Year 5 Decimal Worksheets?

Are you looking for a resource to accompany your place value lessons? Year 5 students not only need to know how to round and represent decimals in different ways, but they also learn how to compare and order these numbers. Teacher Starter has a classroom-ready worksheet that can be used with your students today!

With this place value worksheet, students will practise using number lines to compare decimals to the thousandths place. Students will also use different tables to answer questions and justify their answers through a written response.

An answer page is included with your download to make marking fast and easy!  

Tips for Differentiation + Scaffolding

  • Guided maths groups
  • Lesson warm-up
  • Lesson wrap-up
  • Fast finishers 
  • Homework assignment
  • Whole-class review (via smartboard)

For a challenge, have students use an additional strategy, such as lining up decimals, to prove their comparison is correct. 

If students need assistance with the concepts, invite them to reference previous assignments, posters, or anchor charts. Additionally, this worksheet can be completed in a 1-on-1 or small group setting.
