Summary: Teacher writes a place value chart at the top of the whiteboard Th | H | T | 0. Teacher chooses a 4 digit number and writes it down on a sticky note. Students read numbers out to the teacher, and the teacher uses a tick if it’s in the correct column, a dot if it’s the correct number in the wrong column and a cross if it’s in the wrong column and a wrong number.
Guiding questions: How might you read that number? What digit is in the hundreds/thousands/tens/ones column?Â
