Fractions Decimals Practice Activities

The early practice is strongest when children can see the place-value pattern. A decimal with one digit after the point can be written in tenths, two digits in hundredths, and three digits in thousandths. For example, 0.6 is 6/10, 0.34 is 34/100 and 0.275 is 275/1000. Some worksheets keep fractions unsimplified, which is useful because it lets children focus first on the decimal place before reducing answers.

Children then move from familiar proper fractions to fractions with various denominators. Some fractions convert easily using equivalent fractions, while others require division of the numerator by the denominator. The worksheets include terminating and repeating decimals, helping learners notice the difference between a decimal that stops and one where a digit or group of digits repeats.

Watch for children writing 0.25 as 25/10, dropping the whole number in a mixed number, or treating a repeating decimal as if it ends. A helpful strategy is: name the decimal place, write the denominator, convert or divide, then check if the value is reasonable. Why iBloom worksheets help: the practice is organised in small, clear steps so children build accuracy before handling more varied fraction and decimal forms.
