Β
If students donβt have these skills, STOP and teach these essential building blocks to understanding place value,
or your students will struggle with this cornerstone of mathematics throughout the year.

Young students can develop a strong understanding of place value when teachers assess their knowledge base before diving into place value.Β Make sure your students have the foundation they need to create a strong knowledge of place value.
Β
When you are sure your students have mastery of the above elements, move on to place value and watch them zoom!
