Today, I taught the lesson from the board and had Kate take notes. We talked about decimal numbers with a place value up to ten thousandth. We practiced reading decimals and writing them with "short words" (a combination of decimals and numbers). She identified the place of various underlined digits, and wrote their value. I showed her how 9 tenths compares to 9 hundredths, so that she could see that a large denominator does not necessarily mean a larger number. She did exercises 11-18 on p.15 in class.
