Place Value Chart!

02/17/2021

Many young children have difficulty with place value because it is abstract.
Young children are concrete learners, meaning they need sensory experiences to develop their learning. Using manipulatives, such as base-ten blocks, can help students connect the abstract with more concrete representations.

Place value is the value of each digit in a number.
For example, the 5 in 450 represents 5 tens, or 50; however, the 5 in 5,016 represents 5 thousands, or 5,000.
It is important that children understand that whilst a digit can be the same, its value depends on where it is in the number.

Rounding Mountain is a great visual aid that shows children the rules of rounding to the nearest 10 and 100.

Rounding a number makes it easier to use. General rule for rounding:
1. If the number you are rounding is followed by 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9, round the number up. Example: 38 rounded to the nearest ten is 40.
2. If the number you are rounding is followed by 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4, round the number down. Example: 24 rounded to the nearest ten is 20.
