Why get the bundle
- Comparing decimals needs repeated exposure to the lined-up digits idea. Different formats keep that idea in front of children.
The problem
Is 0.5 bigger or smaller than 0.45?
Whole-number habits say longer means bigger. With decimals, that habit gives the wrong answer.
More digits means bigger
0.45 has more digits than 0.5, so children pick it. Tenths are bigger than hundredths, so 0.5 is the greater.
0.3 and 0.30
Children think a trailing zero changes the value. Learning that they are equal takes seeing them side by side.
Ignoring place value
Decimals compare from the left, tenths first. A child comparing 2.64 and 6.35 has to see the ones digits first.
Each question asks <, = or > for two decimals. Children line up digits by place, starting from the left, and learn to add a zero to see them match.

Parents & homeschool
Write both numbers one under the other with the decimal points lined up. Add a zero if needed, then compare each place.
Teachers

Tutors & intervention
Place value gaps show up fast here. The problems reveal if a child is reading digits instead of values.
Questions
Before you buy.
Do these include equal pairs?
Yes. The = option appears, so children cannot guess that one is always bigger.
Do the problems use money?
No. They compare plain decimals such as 0.47 and 0.82 or 2.64 and 6.35, so the focus stays on place value.
How do I get the file?
The download link appears right after checkout and lands in your inbox at the same time. One PDF with 13 pages. No account needed.
Can I print it more than once?
Yes. One teacher or one household can print unlimited copies for their own students, this year and next.
Will it print in color?
The pages are designed to print in black and white, so they print clean on any home or school printer and do not eat a cartridge.
