5.NBT.1 Recognize that in
a multi-digit number, a
digit in one place
represents 10 times as
much as it represents in
the place to its right and
1/10 of what it represents
in the place to its left.
5.NBT.2 Explain patterns
in the number of zeros of
the product when
multiplying a number by
powers of 10, and explain
patterns in the placement
I can recognize that in a multidigit number, a digit in one place
represents 10 times as much as it
represents in the place to its right
and 1/10 of what it represents in
the place to its left.

of the decimal point when
a decimal is multiplied or
divided by a power of 10.
Use whole-number
exponents to denote
powers of 10.
5.NBT.3a Read, write, and
compare decimals to
thousandths:
a. Read and write
decimals to thousandths
using base-ten numerals,
number names, and
expanded form,
e.g., 347.392 = 3 × 100 + 4
× 10 + 7 × 1 + 3 × (1/10) +
9 × (1/100) + 2 × (1/1000).
I can fluently translate between
powers of ten written as ten raised
to a whole number exponent, the
expanded form, and standard
notation.
(103 = 10 x 10 x 10 = 1000)

compare decimals to
thousandths:
b. Compare two decimals
to thousandths based on
meanings of the digits in
each place, using >, =, and
< symbols to record the
results of comparisons.
I can use >, =, and < symbols to
record the results of comparisons
between decimals.
