mathematics - place value

In mathematics, understanding place value to build number sense is a big focus in the 1/2 class. Here we are in Term 2, working in teams to match numbers represented in different ways: numerals, ten-frames, words and place value charts. Students then ordered the matched cards and used MAB blocks to represent them.
