Make the jump from fractions to decimals feel easy with this clear, colourful Year 4 maths lesson. Starting with a chocolate bar split into ten equal squares, pupils see exactly what a tenth is before meeting the decimal point and learning what each digit is really worth. Carefully staged worked examples link every tenths fraction to its decimal twin, and a simple left-to-right rule takes the guesswork out of comparing and ordering. Two hands-on activities give pupils the practice they need: building and labelling their own tenths number line with a ruler, and a competitive decimal dice duel that quietly develops place-value reasoning and strategy. Real-life examples from money, measuring, weighing and race times show children that decimals are everywhere, and a set of word problems plus a quick self-check quiz consolidate the learning. Visual, interactive and completely ready to teach for a full hour.

A ready-to-teach PowerPoint lesson for Year 4 Maths, covering decimal equivalents of tenths, place value and comparing and ordering numbers with one decimal place.
