Place Value - Numbers to 1,000,000 - Worksheet

The worksheet from Master the Curriculum focuses on enhancing fluency and precision in reading, writing, and understanding numbers up to 1,000,000 for Year 5 students. The lesson's objective is aligned with the National Curriculum, aiming to solidify the pupils' grasp of place value and the significance of each digit in a number. The resources provided for this lesson include differentiated worksheets and teaching slides to accommodate various learning levels. Vocabulary such as 'place value grid', 'represent', 'digits', 'number', and 'part-whole' are central to the lesson, helping children to read, write, and represent numbers in the millions. The activities challenge students to recognise and work with large numbers, even when presented in unfamiliar partitioned forms.

Key questions posed during the lesson encourage critical thinking about number representation, such as asking students to partition one million into different parts or to represent a number like 300,400 in three distinct ways. The worksheets guide students through various exercises, including writing numbers in both digits and words from given place value charts and part-whole models, with some tasks incorporating 'tricks' like empty cells to deepen understanding. The reasoning and problem-solving section requires students to match numbers represented in different formats, with complexity increasing as they progress. The activities are designed to help students achieve different competency levels, from 'Working Towards' and 'Working Within' to 'Greater Depth' in their understanding of numbers up to one million.
