Lesson: Place Value-

Partitioning

Remember your place value

robot and the 4 ways to

represent a number?

Today we are focusing on

Expanded from. This can

also be called Partitioning.

When we expand or

partition a number we

break the number into

hundreds, tens and ones.

For example:

237 --> 200+30+7

This can help us when

adding and subtracting

large numbers.

Can you partition these

numbers?

Word problem

The pet shop has a lot of

fish tanks. They bought 18

more fish and now the

aquarium has 149 fish. How

many fish did the aquarium

have to begin with?

Lesson: Place Value –

Non-standard Partitioning

3 Digit numbers can be

partitioned in non-standard

form.

For example:

- 326 can be 32 groups of

ten and 6 ones

- 267 can be 26 groups of

ten and 7 ones, or 267 ones

- 150 can be 15 groups of

ten or 150 ones
