Grade 4 - Place Value - Addition and Subtraction of Decimals

In this video, we cover adding and subtracting decimals, highlighting the importance of aligning decimal points for accuracy. We demonstrate using the standard algorithm as the most efficient method, particularly in real-world contexts like handling money. We also explore alternative approaches for students who might prefer addition over subtraction, encouraging logical thinking and problem-solving skills. The emphasis is on staying organized and using good mathematical habits to ensure clarity in their work.
