Students who are performing below the standard will receive targeted intervention to address their understanding of place value. This concept is critical to future success in math so children can develop their number sense.
Given base ten blocks and a place value chart (ones, tens, hundreds) students will engage in an activity where the teacher says a number in standard form (324) and they build the number using the blocks on their place value chart. Their place value chart would have three hundreds, two tens, and four ones. The teacher might also ask students to do the opposite; the number is given to them in expanded form (three hundreds, two tens, and four ones), and students must show a model and say and write the number correctly. Students will be given sentence starters to talk about their numbers. ___ has hundreds, tens, and __ ones....
At this time, the teacher might also play: What is my number?
