Placing Value on different approaches to maths

We used a change of scene and a different approach to learning place value and multiplying and dividing by powers of 10 this week. In small groups the children selected  5 digits and placed them in the appropriate value columns to 2 decimal places. We then multipled and divided the number by 10 and 100 and recorded the pattern systematically in our books and discussed what had happened to the numbers.
