Place Value

This week we have been learning ALOT about PLACE VALUE! Ms. Strum has used base ten block to introduce this lesson. Ms. Strum also taped four squares on the floor. Each of the squares represented each place value. Each digit has a place. The squares from right to left represent the ones, tens, hundreds, and thousands place. It is very important that we learn place value so that we can understand regrouping.

Tierra, Johnathan, and JeMarcus represent a "PLACE VALUE"!

Ms. Strum also taught us how to add without regrouping using the base ten blocks. We know how to do this without base ten blocks. Ms. Strum made sure that we could show her how to add without regrouping using base ten blocks. This will help us SO much when Ms. Strum teaches us how to add WITH regrouping!

We have learned so much this week about place value using base ten blocks. Ms. Strum makes sure that we learn everyday. We MUST focus and always do our best! This is going to be the BEST year ever!
