Learning the Place Value of 3-digit Numbers

Learning the Place Value of 3-digit Numbers 

Our Maths groups got busy with place value blocks to learn what each digit means in a 3-digit number.

After we had made the number that the teacher had written, we made our own numbers out of the ones, tens and hundreds blocks and wrote our number on a whiteboard. We learned that there are rules about how many blocks we could put in each part of the "trend setter house" like no more than 9 could 'live' in each part. If that happened,  ten had to move out to the neighbour's house! We had a lot of fun with the blocks and went on to add on in tens, add and subtract tens. It was so easy to understand!
