Problem Solving with Place Value
February 3, 2021.
Understanding place value provides the essential foundation for so many aspects of mathematics, from multiplying and dividing by powers of ten, understanding the equivalence between fractions, decimals and percentages, and learning how to write and calculate with numbers in standard form.
The videos below show how I use the place value table to teach these topics conceptually.
Writing numbers as words
Multiplying by 10, 100 and 1000
Converting between fractions, decimals and percentages
I designed this problem-solving lesson to deepen students’ understanding of place value to connect it to other aspects of mathematics, including listing permutations, odd and even numbers and money. By linking to these topics, the questions are challenging yet remain accessible to students in key stage 3 and those studying the foundation GCSE course.
The lesson consists of six problem-solving questions, all centred around place value. Here is a sample of three of the questions.
Here is a sample of three of the questions.
Linking place value to arithmetic
In this question, students link their understanding of place value to writing numbers in figures from words. Next, they use column subtraction to find the difference between two numbers.
Linking place value to permutations
In this question, students arrange the four single-digit cards to make the numbers between 230 and 430.
Students link their understanding of place value to listing permutations.
Linking place value to odd and even numbers
To work out the smallest, even number, students need to find two three-digit numbers with the least difference.
To calculate the biggest, odd number, they need to find two numbers with the greatest difference.
Both questions can be completed through a method of trial and improvement. More able students would use:
- odd + odd = even
- odd + even =odd
- even + odd = odd
- even + even = even.
