Ask students to identify the decimal represented by the hundredths 
grid and then shade a tenths grid to show an equivalent amount.
They could then create a thousandths grid representing the 
equivalent amount displayed by the tenths and hundredths grids. 
Ask students to explain how they know the decimals are equivalent.
