How to teach this
Draw a place value chart with the decimal point as the landmark: tens, ones, point, tenths, hundredths. Have your child drop each digit of 34.72 into its column before answering, then say the value out loud: "the 7 is seven tenths, 0.7." Money helps too: dimes are tenths of a dollar and pennies are hundredths.
Watch for: Kids read the 7 in 34.72 as 'seventy': after the decimal point places shrink, so that 7 is worth 0.7. Kids mix up tens and tenths: tens sit to the left of the decimal point, tenths sit first on the right.
