4.4 From Hundredths to Hundred-thousands

Unit Goals

  • Students read, write and compare numbers in decimal notation. They also extend place value understanding for multi-digit whole numbers and add and subtract within 1,000,000.

Section A Goals

  • Represent, compare, and order decimals to the hundredths by reasoning about their size.
  • Write tenths and hundredths in decimal notation.

Section B Goals

  • Read, represent, and describe the relative magnitude of multi-digit whole numbers up to 1 million.
  • Recognize that in a multi-digit whole number, the value of a digit in one place represents ten times what it represents in the place to its right.

Section C Goals

  • Compare, order, and round multi-digit whole numbers within 1,000,000.

Section D Goals

  • Add and subtract multi-digit whole numbers using the standard algorithm.
