Full lesson	Create for a teacher a set of content for giving a lesson, beginning with the lesson plan. Each new block of materials must begin with an H1 heading (other subheaders must be H2, H3, etc). When you describe required pictures, write those descriptions in curly brackets, for example: {A picture of a triangle}

Lesson Structure

Step Number	Step Title	Length	Details
1	Introduction to Decimals	5 mins	Briefly introduce decimals, explaining how they relate to fractions. Use real-life examples.
2	Place Value of Decimals	10 mins	Discuss the place value system in relation to decimals. Use a chart to show tenths and hundredths. Have students identify values in examples.
3	Addition and Subtraction of Decimals	10 mins	Teach addition and subtraction with decimal numbers. Provide examples on the board and work through a couple of problems together.
4	Guided Practice	5 mins	Distribute worksheets with decimal problems. Walk around to provide support while students work independently.
5	Independent Practice	5 mins	Allow students time to complete remaining problems on the worksheet individually.
6	Homework Assignment Discussion	5 mins	Review homework assignments and clarify any misconceptions without student presentations.

Assessment

• Monitor students during guided practice to assess understanding.
• Evaluate worksheets for completion and accuracy.
• Provide feedback on homework.

Homework

• Assign a worksheet with additional decimal problems to reinforce learning at home.
• Encourage students to find examples of decimals in real life (e.g., prices, measurements) and write them down to share next class.

Additional Notes

• Ensure all materials are prepared prior to the lesson.
• Adapt the lesson based on the needs of students, providing extra support for those who require it.

Reflection

• After the lesson, reflect on what worked well and what could be improved for future lessons on decimals. Feedback from students can be invaluable for this process.
