What do you already know about place value?
Learning Objective
At the end of the lesson you will understand place value for Year Two, and practise solving problems at four levels: Ilham (easiest), Lime (easy), Lemon (medium), Grapefruit (hard), and Orange (very hard).
What is Place Value?
Place value is understanding what each digit in a number really means.
Why Is Place Value Important?
It helps us know how big or small a number is and how to read or write numbers correctly.
Breaking Down Numbers
Each number has units (ones), tens, and sometimes hundreds. Each place means something different.
Look at This Example
In 35, the 3 means 3 tens (30), and the 5 means 5 ones.
