Math Students in Action




Using Place Value to find where numbers fit onto a 10,000 grid sheet.






We worked in groups of 4 students to place our five numbers each onto the grid.







  • Setting benchmarks on the grid helped a lot.



  • Talking about there being 100 squares in each line and each section of ten lines were a thousand.



  • The whole page was broken into 10 larger sections 10 x 1,000 is 10, 000 total.



This was a really fun, challenging, and productive activity.
