Original Prompt

To make and represent numbers I can make and represent numbers (whole numbers, fractions, and simple decimals) in canonical form using place value UK Spelling, Victorian curriculum

This resource focuses on the concept of place value, guiding students to understand and represent whole numbers, fractions, and decimals in canonical form. It begins with a place value chart that categorizes hundreds, tens, and ones, using base-ten blocks for visual representation. The document includes exercises for students to practice drawing and writing numbers in standard form. Furthermore, it elaborates on simplifying fractions by identifying and using the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) to convert fractions to their simplest form. Visual aids, like number lines, help illustrate the placement of fractions, and the transition between fractions and decimals is explored, emphasizing how decimals represent fractional values when the denominator is a power of ten. Lastly, students engage in guided and independent practice to reinforce their understanding of these concepts and culminate in an exit ticket activity that tests their ability to represent numbers in canonical form.
