place-value

We've been talking a lot about place value. To help us be better prepared for 2 and 3 digit addition and subtraction, I will provide tons of experiences with place-value concepts for ones, tens and hundreds. By this time of the year we can name/identify numbers up to 100 and are learning to find their representation using base-10 blocks. We are also learning to exchange cubes (ones) for longs (tens) in order to represent numbers by using the fewest number of base-10 blocks...this will help us with regrouping later on.
