Assessing student understanding of grade-level concepts is essential to the learning cycle. Once students have had an opportunity to practice and apply these skills, it is essential to have a tool to use to measure student progress. If you are looking for a tool to assess student understanding of decimal operations, you have come to the right place!

Teach Starter has created this comprehensive math assessment to use with your 5th-grade students. With this assessment, students will demonstrate an understanding of different decimal operations. This math test requires students to analyze and solve a variety of word problems, justify their reasonings, and solve computational-based problems.

This assessment covers the following computational topics:

• Adding decimals
• Subtracting decimals
• Multiplying decimals

An answer key is included with your download to make grading fast and easy!

Tips for Differentiation + Scaffolding 

Challenge students to create their own quiz about the concepts, with an answer key and rationales. Students can make their own board game or digital game about decimal operations.
