Hello, amazing mathematicians! 🧮✨ Today, we are going to embark on an exciting adventure to explore place value. But first, let’s warm up our brains with a fun story!
Once upon a time, in a delightful land called Numberland, there were two friendly towns: Onesville and Tensville.
Onesville was home to tiny numbers, each only worth a single unit. Imagine them like little ants, working together to make big things happen!
Tensville, on the other hand, was full of big numbers, where each number was actually ten times larger! They were like big balloons that could carry even more numbers!
One sunny morning, the Mayor of Numberland announced a challenge: "Who can show how big numbers work by using both of our lovely towns?" The townspeople were excited, but they needed your help!
Grab a Piece of Paper: We will draw our own version of Onesville and Tensville.
Color the Towns: Use your colors to make Onesville bright and cheerful, and Tensville grand and majestic!
Create Number Characters: Design some number characters that will represent the numbers from 0 to 9 in Onesville, and the numbers 10, 20, 30,...90 in Tensville.
Are you ready to discover how our number friends work together to create bigger and bigger numbers? Let's put on our thinking caps and begin our adventure into place value! 🎈
After the lesson, think about how you can combine a number from Onesville with one from Tensville. For example, what happens when 3 from Onesville and 20 from Tensville team up?
Can’t wait to see what you come up with! Let the Place Value Adventure begin! 🎉
