The children in Year 5 have been developing their place value knowledge this week. They are able to represent numbers to 1,000,000 using place value counters. They have been able to read and write numbers to 1,000,000 and answer questions. We have also explored how to use Gattegno charts to represent numbers and add and subtract 10, 100 and 1000. Miss Allen has been particularly impressed with the children’s presentation in books and how neatly they have drawn their own place value charts when completing tasks.
