Max Maths, Year 3, Practice, Placing numbers on a number line marked in multiples of 10 or 100

In a Year 3 mathematics lesson from Max Maths, students practice the important skill of placing numbers on a number line. This activity is designed to help children understand the concept of numerical order and positioning, specifically focusing on number lines marked in multiples of 10 or 100. The 'Let's Try It' section provides a hands-on approach where students are tasked with correctly placing given numbers on three separate number lines, each with different scales and intervals.

The first number line ranges from 600 to 1000, marked in intervals of 100, where students must place the number 706 in the correct position between 700 and 800. The second line spans from 200 to 500, again in 100s, and the challenge is to identify where the number 363 falls between 300 and 400. The final number line is more detailed, with increments of 10 between 200 and 300, and students are asked to place the number 218 accurately. In the 'Let's Practise' section, students are presented with a number line from 300 to 400 and must circle the number that is correctly positioned. This activity reinforces their understanding of number sequences and the visual representation of numbers in relation to each other on a line.
