Place Value teacher instructions

The "Place Value" booklet for Year 5, created by KS2Gems, is a comprehensive resource that includes a variety of activities tailored to meet specific place value learning objectives. Each activity is clearly marked with the relevant objectives at the top of the page, and the necessary equipment or resources are listed for ease of preparation. The booklet employs symbols to indicate whether an activity is most suitable for the whole class, small groups, or pairs, allowing teachers to adapt the resources to the specific dynamics and needs of their classroom.

Teachers have the flexibility to incorporate these activities at different stages of their lessons. They can be used at the start of a lesson to review and assess prior knowledge, during the main part of the lesson to reinforce new concepts, or at the end to evaluate students' progress. Intended to complement the existing curriculum, these activities can also be particularly beneficial for children in intervention groups who may require additional practice. Additional resources available on the KS2Gems website include target boards, loop cards, digit cards, arrow cards, mats, vocabulary lists, quizzes, counters, Cuisenaire rod images, place value counters, and part-whole templates, all designed to support and enhance place value teaching and learning.
