Butterfly Wings (Compare decimal numbers to hundredths and record the result with the symbols)

Ms. Thomas's fourth-grade class measures butterfly wings for a science experiment. They compare the lengths of two butterfly wings using a place value chart, determining that the second butterfly has taller wings. The lesson then extends to ordering a set of decimal numbers from largest to smallest, emphasizing the importance of comparing digits in the same place value. The video teaches how to compare decimals to the hundredths place.
