Place Value Initials
The students practiced building larger numbers using paper Base Ten Blocks by creating the initial of their first name. After building their initial, they recorded how many tens and ones their letter contained and then wrote the expanded notation.
Place Value Pumpkin Patch
The students created Place Value Pumpkin Patches to help them count larger numbers by tens and ones. They first built various numbers using candy pumpkins. They then took a gallery walk to count one anothers' pumpkins. They then recreated the pumpkin patch number on paper ten rods by painting with their thumbprint. The students then wrote how many rows of ten and how many ones were in their pumpkin patch and how much those numbers were worth in expanded notation. Fellow teachers, you can download the templates for FREE on my TPT store.
Comparing Numbers to 50
In math we have been learning to compare and order numbers to 50. One way that we have been practicing is to use our Promethean Board to build numbers with Base Ten Blocks. The students take turns building the numbers and counting them. They then use text boxes to put the numbers in order from greatest to least and least to greatest.
