HOW TO TEACH PLACE VALUEIdeas for pre school and beyond
SOME HOW TOS
Introduce place value concepts at a daily calendar time with a calendar
Count fingers, make the tens, Collect junk. Have kids bring in piles of small
things to put in a large container. Collections of pull tabs Flats, rods and singles Pictures of large amounts
TENS GAME
Count craft sticks for each day students have been in school.
Place the counted sticks in plastic cups labeled "ones", "tens" and "hundreds".
When the "ones" cup is full, have the students take turns counting out 10 of the sticks and placing a rubber band around them.
Place groups of 10 into the "tens" cup.
PLACE VALUE BOARDS Make or buy place value boards that depict the
concept you are working on. Divide the board into sections with the appropriate
place value terms on top. Empty the corresponding spaces at the bottom. A
board for one group might have the words "ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, ten thousands, hundred thousands" written across the top, with lines dividing each word.
Make boards that are appropriate for all levels.
To go with these, you will need number cards. Use playing cards with the face cards removed or you use index cards with the numbers zero through nine written on them
MEMORY CARDS
Use index cards to make place value memory cards
Make 10 pairs per pair of students. Have each pair of cards state a numerical
term in words, such as seven 10s and three ones and in numbers (73).
Adjust this game for all levels, from those learning 10s and ones to those working on fractions and decimals.
