Place Value within 50 - Assessment

The Place Value within 50 Assessment is a comprehensive evaluation designed for Year 1 students to gauge their understanding of place value concepts up to the number 50. The assessment includes a variety of tasks that require students to demonstrate their ability to count, recognise, and work with numbers within this range. For instance, students are asked to count objects, such as teddies and counters, to determine a total number. They are also challenged to complete sequences by filling in missing numbers, which helps to assess their counting skills and knowledge of number order.

Further exercises involve completing sentences that test the students' understanding of one more or one less than a given number, such as identifying the number that is one more than 23 or one less than 42. Additionally, students are asked to identify the largest and smallest numbers from a given set, enhancing their comparison skills. The assessment includes practical number construction activities, where students must decipher numbers made by fictional characters, Rosie and Malachi, reinforcing their comprehension of how individual digits combine to form larger numbers. Finally, the assessment encourages self-reflection by asking students to rate their confidence in place value, ensuring a holistic approach to learning and self-assessment.
