Decimal Place Value Models/Tenths and Hundredths is a Grade 3–4 mathematics worksheet that helps students read visual decimal models and identify the decimal represented by each model. Across 10 multiple-choice questions, students distinguish tenths from hundredths and connect the model to decimal notation, including values such as 0.1, 0.8, 0.09, 0.34, and 0.97. This free printable worksheet supports guided practice, independent review, or a quick check of decimal place-value understanding. The answer choices intentionally include whole numbers and decimals with misplaced digits or zeros, giving teachers useful evidence of whether students understand the value of each tenths or hundredths position. An answer key is included for efficient checking. The worksheet is appropriate for introducing or reinforcing visual models for decimals in Grades 3–4.

This worksheet covers identifying tenths and hundredths decimals from visual models. Its 10 multiple-choice questions require students to translate each model into decimal notation, helping them distinguish values such as 0.8, 0.5, 0.09, 0.34, and 0.97 from whole numbers or decimals with incorrect place values.
Introduce the worksheet by having students identify what one tenth and one hundredth represent in a place-value model before they select an answer. For each multiple-choice item, ask students to explain how the model determines the digit to the right of the decimal and whether that digit is in the tenths or hundredths place. Use their explanations to connect the visual representation to decimals such as 0.1 and 0.01.
Watch for students choosing whole-number options such as 80, 97, or 34 because they overlook the decimal point or treat the model as a whole-number representation. Students may also confuse tenths and hundredths, selecting 0.8 instead of 0.08 or 0.9 instead of 0.09, or misread the position of a zero in values such as 0.034 and 0.34. Ask them to name the place represented by each digit before revisiting the answer choices.
On Wayground, assign this worksheet as a printable PDF or as a digital quiz, and use the complete answer key to check responses. Printable submissions can be graded by scanning student work with the Wayground for Teachers app. The PDF option also supports schools that want to reduce screen time while students practise reading decimal models.
Use the worksheet’s Advanced Settings to adjust font spacing and font size so the decimal models and multiple-choice options are easier to read. You can also select a dyslexia-friendly font or translate the worksheet into another language when that supports access to the tenths-and-hundredths task. These changes preserve the worksheet’s 10-question multiple-choice format while improving readability.
