Place Value - Numbers to 10,000,000 - Presentation
Maths Resource Description
The educational material provided offers a comprehensive exploration of place value for numbers up to ten million. It includes a variety of activities designed to help students understand and practice the concept. The first activity focuses on identifying numbers in digit form using place value headings such as Millions (M), Hundred Thousands (HTh), Ten Thousands (TTh), Thousands (Th), Hundreds (H), Tens (T), and Ones (O). Students are presented with a series of numbers, such as 1,121,214 and 5,026, and are tasked with placing each digit in the correct column according to its value.
Subsequent activities involve matching written word forms of numbers with their digit counterparts, reinforcing the understanding of place value and the significance of each digit's position. For example, students match "one million, four hundred and nine thousand, two hundred and sixteen" with "1,409,216". Additionally, the material includes part-whole model exercises where students complete the models with the correct numbers, such as combining 467,000, 3,000, and 250,000 to make 470,000. In reasoning activities, students are challenged to insert missing digits to make statements correct and to correct misconceptions, such as adjusting Rosie's incorrect subtraction of forty thousand from 924,650. These activities encourage critical thinking and a deeper understanding of the place value system.
