Understanding Place Value Concepts

This video tutorial demonstrates how to practice place value with whole numbers using interactive charts and activities. It guides teachers on setting up place value charts and provides two activities where students modify numbers by changing the place value of specific digits. The first activity involves increasing the value of a digit by moving it to a higher place value, while the second activity involves decreasing the value of a digit by moving it to a lower place value.

• Solving algebraic equations

• Understanding fractions

• Practicing place value with whole numbers

• Learning multiplication tables

What is the educational level targeted by these place value activities?

• 5th grade

• 4th grade

• 3rd grade

• 2nd grade

What should you do first when preparing the place value chart?

• Print it on bright colored paper

• Insert it into a dry erase pocket

• Select a double place value chart

• Provide students with a number

What is the purpose of using bright colored paper for the chart?

• To make it more durable
