Place Value - PowerPoint

The provided teaching resources focus on the concept of place value within the mathematics curriculum for Year 6 students. The materials are designed to help children understand the significance of a digit's position in a seven-digit number and how it determines the digit's value. For example, the value of a digit can represent millions, hundred thousands, ten thousands, thousands, hundreds, tens, or ones, depending on its place within the number. The resources include a PowerPoint presentation, worksheets, and interactive activities that encourage students to break down numbers into their constituent place values and to answer questions that reinforce their understanding of the concept.

Students are given a variety of tasks such as identifying the value of specific digits within larger numbers, for instance, determining that the digit 1 in the number 1,000,000 represents one million. They are also asked to construct the highest and lowest possible seven-digit numbers from provided digits. Additionally, they practice writing the next four numbers in a sequence, adjusting by increments or decrements of 10, 100, or 1,000 as specified. These exercises aim to solidify the students' grasp of place value and its practical application in number sequences and arithmetic operations. The resources are complemented by a place value game that offers an engaging, interactive way for students to enhance their learning experience.
