Here is a fun lesson plan on decimals, and it is right in time for Valentine's Day. But, keep in mind that you don't have to wait for this holiday in order for your kids to enjoy it. I have already tried this out on my class of third graders, and it worked great. You will need to buy colored candy hearts from the store. I actually used the sweet tart hearts that come in large bags. I bought those cute little snack sized baggies and I put ten hearts in each bag. Remember, this lesson is on decimals to the tenths place, so you can't just give them a handful. In order to make grading the sheet easier on me (and we know how important that is), I put the same colors in each bag. I believe I ended up giving each child, 3 red, 3 blue, 2 orange, and 2 purple. Have fun with this plan, and if you use it and like it, please come back and post a comment on the website. Thanks. Click here for the Candy Hearts Lesson Plan: Decimals to the Tenths Place.
