Develop early place value knowledge

A Freebie lesson

This Teachable provides the scaffolding for teaching place value from an early age by: listing the big ideas in place value and number facts, proposing the learning sequences for place value and introducing one- and two-digit numbers, outlining place value misconceptions and difficulties and providing two lesson plans that illustrate how an understanding of place value concepts can be developed through children's literature.
