In this Year 4 Represent Numbers to 1,000 lesson, children identify and represent three-digit numbers using different representations.
The Year 4 Represent Numbers to 1,000 PowerPoint guides both teachers and children through the lesson, including use of the varied fluency, reasoning and problem solving, deeper reasoning and scaffolded resources. Key learning information about this step:
Key Vocabulary
representation: A number that has been shown in different ways. For example, in numerals, words or using equipment such as Base 10 or a place value chart.
Base 10: A physical resource which represents numbers. The small cubes represent ‘ones’; the rods represent ‘tens’ and are made up of 10 small cubes; the squares represent ‘hundreds’ and are made up of 10 rods; the large cubes represent ‘thousands’ and are made up of 10 squares.
placeholder: 0 is used to hold a place in a number and maintain its place value.
Varied Fluency
Knowledge Organiser
• Designed to support all children via key information and examples.
Scaffolded Examples
• Guided practice counting the hundreds, tens and ones in each representation before writing the number.
Support
• Q1: Find the number represented. No exchanges; no use of zero as a placeholder.
• Q2: Read a number shown in Base 10. No exchanges; no use of zero as a placeholder.
• Q3: Read a number shown in place value counters. No exchanges; no use of zero as a placeholder.
Core
• Q1: Find the number represented. No exchanges; use of zero as a placeholder.
• Q2: Read a number shown in Base 10. No exchanges; use of zero as a placeholder.
• Q3: Read a number shown in place value counters. No exchanges; use of zero as a placeholder.
Stretch
• Q1: Find the number represented. Exchanging required.
• Q2: Read a Base 10 number. Exchanging required.
• Q3: Read a place value counters number. Exchanging required.
Reasoning and Problem Solving
Support
• Q1: Reasoning - Decide whether the number shown with place value counters matches the stated number. No exchanges; no use of zero as a placeholder.
• Q2: Reasoning - Decide whether the Base 10 shown can represent a given number. No exchanges; no use of zero as a placeholder.
• Q3: Problem Solving - Make three-digit numbers using a set number of place value counters (up to four).
Core
• Q1: Reasoning - Decide whether the number shown with place value counters matches the stated number. No exchanges; use of zero as a placeholder.
• Q2: Reasoning - Decide whether the Base 10 shown can represent a given number. No exchanges; use of zero as a placeholder.
• Q3: Problem Solving - Make three-digit numbers using a set number of place value counters (five or six).
Stretch
• Q1: Reasoning - Decide whether the number shown with place value counters matches the stated number. Exchanging required.
• Q2: Reasoning - Decide whether the Base 10 shown can represent a given number. Exchanging required.
• Q3: Problem Solving - Make three-digit numbers using a set number of place value counters (seven or eight), where each digit must be different.
Deeper Reasoning
The questions in this set focus on problem solving with base 10 to deepen understanding in identifying, representing and estimating numbers using different representations.
