Money | Math Lesson Ideas Features activities and games to help young children learn place value. http://www.teachnet.com/lesson/math/matmon.html
Extractions: Place Value Made Fun We read how one of Calvin Klein poster boys makes a seven-figure income just for having the right face. Quick! Do your fifth graders know what minimum amount he makes? Obviously, place value is an important skill in number manipulation, say, for counting your OWN money, let alone someone else's. These following games and exercises can help you reinforce place value skills in a fun way. Thanks to contributors Brian Carey [ZGMB56A@prodigy.com], Kim [kbeyer@rmi.net], Jacqueline [ia435@worldchat.com] and Michael Sobol [mjs@clearnet.net] Start by having students in groups of two or three roll three dice. Using the numbers they rolled, have them make as many three digit numbers as they can. Have the students tell the places of the numbers as they write them on the board. You can ask the students if the 5 (for example) is worth more in this number or this number. Add a dice a day until they get to the1 millions place (7 dice). Keep your dice around for the next game, too. Pairs of students each make four columns on a sheet of paper or chalkboard, labeled "thousands" "hundreds" "tens" and "ones". Then they take turns rolling one die. After each roll, both students must place the number in one of their columns. After four rolls, compare the resulting four-digit numbers. The high (or low) number winner receives one point, and play continues to a predetermined number. If both students get the same number, no points are given, and as they become more familiar with the concept, add more columns for larger numbers (and less chances for ties).
