  3. Give students a supply of base 10 blocks or our Base 10 Block Cards.
  4. Model representing different decimals by placing the correct number of base 10 blocks or cards in each place value. For example, to model 0.31, you would place three “flats” in the box in the tenths place and one “stick” in the hundredths place.
