Description
These products have been designed to develop the children's knowledge of place value when multiplying and dividing whole numbers and decimal numbers by 10, 100 and 1000.
Product 1: PowerPoint for teaching place value
Split into three sections with 90 slides included, students will experience:
Section 1: (30 slides)
- Multiplying whole numbers (units, tens, hundreds) by ten
- Multiplying decimals (tenths, hundredths and thousandths) by ten
- Dividing whole numbers (units, tens and hundreds) by ten
- Dividing decimal numbers (tenths, hundredths and thousandths) by ten
Section 2: (30 slides)
- Multiplying whole numbers (units, tens, hundreds) by one hundred
- Multiplying decimals (tenths, hundredths and thousandths) by one hundred
- Dividing whole numbers (units, tens, hundreds and thousands) by one hundred
- Dividing decimal numbers (tenths, hundredths and thousandths) by one hundred
Section 3: (30 slides)
- Multiplying whole numbers (units, tens, hundreds) by one thousand
- Multiplying decimals (tenths, hundredths and thousandths) by one thousand
- Dividing whole numbers (units, tens, hundreds and thousands) by one thousand
- Dividing decimal numbers (tenths, hundredths and thousandths) by one thousand
This resource is a PowerPoint with 90 slides.
Each section is color coded linked to the objective being delivered. Each slide has the objective clearly labelled and there is one question per slide. We have used this for a number of years at the beginning of each new school year. We start by showing the first few slides and discussing what happens to the numbers when multiplying them by ten. Once mastered, we then throw in the decimals to ensure that the children are not just adding a 0 to their answers, but understand that the number grows in size by a power of 10. Then we move onto division of numbers by 10. This process builds up over a number of days before we have introduced all elements of this product. Once everything has been introduced and the children understand the process, then we use the whole product in sessions.
Each slide can also be edited, therefore after each session, each slide can be changed by altering one of the digits, the slides can be used over and over again until the children have mastered the art of place value within multiplication and division of 10, 100 and 1000. This allows the teacher to be able to use the same resource, edited, to further support the skills of the children without having to spend time preparing more resources. Within one minute, the 90 slides can be edited, and the product is ready to go again the following day.
Once the children have mastered the skills, slides can then be jumbled to mix the objectives, ensuring that the skills have been embedded within the children's math journey. This resource has worked every year for us, and we then feel confident in moving onto the four operations, safe in the knowledge that place value understanding is secure.
An added bonus of this product is that the PowerPoint can also be printed off and provide the children with challenge activities to complete independently, in pairs of groups, as homework, a math center or a review session.
Product 2: Worksheet to assess before and after teaching/progress of learning and identify future learning targets
This resource is great for checking on the development of math skills within the context of place value, multiplying and dividing any number (including decimals) by 10, 100 and 1000.
We devised this resource to use as a starting point and end point to our teaching of place value. It is in two parts:
- Part 1: A graduated approach to the two skills of multiplying and dividing, and then breaking those two parts into three sections each of x 10, x 100, x 1000, then moving to division by 10, 100 and 1000. The numbers within each section are also carefully selected to move up in complexity the further the students move through the activity - assessing learning of the place value system in every question.
- Part 2: A randomized assessment of learning within all 6 skills - mixing division and multiplication and the method of using 10, 100 and 1000.
This product includes the worksheet and an answer key. It is ideal to assess knowledge before starting the topic, and as an assessment of learning once the topic has been taught. It can be used as a home learning activity, remote activity, math center and early finisher too!
It provided lots of evidence on each students' progress within the topic and provided opportunities for students to be grouped and target teaching on what was needed for those groups, rather than repeating teaching on areas they do not need.
