In Year 4 this week we have been looking at place value, specifically 1000 numbers.
In this lesson, the children were taught how to flexibly partition.
For example:
2345 = 1000 + 1300 + 20 + 25
The children used counters and part whole models to support their learning and they were very successful!
"Flexible partitions is like partitioning, but you don't have to keep with the hundreds and thousand. I could say 1,200 + 2,009= 3,209", Kayden - Willow
"
"I get it now ! Once you make the number, you can just move the counters." , Olivia - Elm
“The counters really helped me to understand how the numbers were grouped.” Nyasa- Maple
