Learn about place value and how to use odometers through a fun experiment. Calculate the number of tens, ones, hundreds, and thousands in various numbers and practice adding and subtracting using an odometer. Share your knowledge by creating a tutorial.
E N D
Place Value • Using Odometers
Experiment • Experiment with your odometer • What could it be used for?
HTO • Remember the place value family names (millions, thousands, ones) • And that each family has three ‘members’ (hundreds, tens, ones)
624 HTO
This space is called “thousand” 624 000 HTO HTO
This space is called “million” 624 000 000 HTO HTO HTO
Remember, read the group of numbers before a space as if it were a group of HTO (hundreds, tens and ones)
Say... • 524 • 3 756 • 65 800 • 23 712 • 321 800 • 420 712 • 3867 200 • 13450 000 • 143700 000
Can you calculate? • a) how many 10s • b) how many 1s • c) how many 100s • d) how many 1 000s • e) 1 000 more • f) 300 less • g) 10 000 more • h) 2 000 less • 4 768 • 2 719 • 62 125
Bob is trying to figure out the number Sally has written down. • She tells him that there are two ones, eight thousands and four hundreds. • What is the number?
Barrier Game • Find a buddy who you work well with • Sit back to back • Take turns in giving instructions for adding or subtracting numbers to your odometer • See if you end up with the same number!
Your turn • Can you write a series of instructions, detailing what to do with your odometer? • How does it work? Could you present this as a tutorial to share with a year five student to teach them how to use odometers? • http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/paulfuller75/3313750
Maths Diary • What have you learnt? • How does your odometer help you understand place value?
