Description
These fifth-grade math sketch notes (AKA doodle pages) are a powerful learning and teaching tool for adding and subtracting decimal numbers. They cover essential math concepts and procedures for students in a visually appealing way. You can use this resource to supplement any math curriculum, and it is perfect for previewing/pre-teaching or reviewing/reinforcing.
These sketch pages are like mini anchor charts that your students actively create and can be referred to in the future.
While these were specifically created for 5th grade, there are no grade-level indicators on the student materials, so you can use these with older students.
WHAT’S INCLUDED:
- Blank student note page (two sizes: 8.5 × 11 & composition notebook size for INBs)
- Detailed answer key
- Step-by-step PowerPoint
GUIDED NOTE-TAKING
Guiding your students through the note-taking process is so easy and requires almost zero preparation!
- PowerPoint: Each sketch note page comes with a step-by-step PowerPoint that you can use to guide your students as they complete their notes.
- Document Camera: Use a document camera to project a blank copy of the notes. Use the answer key provided to complete the note page in front of your students.
WHY SKETCH?
Sketch notes present your students with a meaningful and engaging activity they will love. Doodle note-taking activates verbal and visual modalities to capture concepts. The whole brain is absorbed in hearing, synthesizing, and retaining ideas. This high level of engagement helps students retain the content and leaves little room for distraction.

Great Resource
This resource was well-organized, engaging, and easy to implement in my classroom. The directions were clear, and the materials required very little prep time. My students stayed actively involved throughout the lesson and demonstrated a strong understanding of the concepts being taught. I especially appreciated how versatile the activities were and how easily they could be adapted to meet the needs of different learners. This resource helped reinforce important skills while keeping students motivated and interested. I will definitely be using it again and look forward to exploring more resources from this creator!
love this creator
These notes are easy to use and easy to have a sub complete with the class. My students save them in their binders so they can refer back to them on assignments and tests. I love buying these for most of our math units. Teacher Thrive does a great job adding a variety of models for students to refer back to to build understanding of the concept.
well crafted materials
We love using fun, new and useful activities when teaching new concepts.
Engaging, Visual, and Perfect for Decimal Operations
As a 5th grade teacher, I absolutely loved this doodle page sketch notes resource for adding and subtracting decimal numbers. The visual layout helped my students clearly understand the process, and they stayed engaged the entire time. It was easy to use during guided instruction and became a great reference in their math notebooks. This resource made decimal operations feel approachable and fun while still reinforcing strong math skills. I highly recommend resources from Teacher Thrive and will definitely be using this again.
The best for math notes
I love these for my students to use as math notes. They are interactive and I feel like it does a good job of covering everything.

Is there a way for you to turn the ppt into Google slides? I have had our Tech people to come and look at my computer etc to see if they could figure out what was going on and they said that it looks like instead of it being a ppt that you saved it as something else. I really want to use this resource with my students.
Hello, Angela. All of the presentation files are saved as PPT. You should be able to upload them to Google Drive and open them in Slides without any issues. Perhaps you can send me an email with a screenshot of what error message you are seeing? info@teacherthive.com.
Hey I just bought the adding and subtracting decimals notes from you and I am not able to get the powerpoint to open.
