The video and activity in this pack can be used in a variety of ways. You can use it for digital learning as long as everything is uploaded behind a password protected site, such as a school portal where students have to enter passwords or to Google Classroom where students must log in. The video can NOT be uploaded to a public website such as Youtube. The video is intended for one teacher and her classroom. If more than one teacher is going to be using it, please make sure you purchase the correct number of additional licenses.

NOTE: If you are trying to share this on your stream with your kids in Google Classroom, you may find it easier to save the .mp4 to your Google Drive and then upload it straight from your drive. Uploading from your drive is given as an option. The longer the video, the longer it will take to upload. Once it is in your google drive though, it is really fast to share with students.

What is an “I Solve You Solve” lesson? In an “I Solve You Solve” lesson, an introduction to the topic is given. A problem is presented during the video. The problem is then solved step by step using graphics and narration. Next, a problem is presented to the students for them to solve. When students go to solve their problem, a character is introduced and students are asked to help the character solve the problem. The character in this video is Noah.

What is included in this Understanding Place Value mini lesson activity pack?

• 30 Minute Mini Lesson Video – You could break this into two days of 15 minutes if you need to. Simply restart the next day. You can easily use it for an entire math lesson though. The video is an Mp4 and it will need to be downloaded and saved to your computer. Please watch the preview video above to get an idea of how things are presented. Remember, the preview is just showing a small slice of the entire video, so it may appear choppy.
• A pdf file that presents 4 multiple choice questions. Students will be instructed to help Noah for the “You Solve”. They will answer 4 questions related to values of digits in larger numbers and how they change as they move to the left or right in a number.
• BONUS – I have also included the same 4 questions as a Google Form quiz. If you use Google Classroom, you can use the link given in the file to make a copy of the quiz for your class to complete. Students are still directed to draw the line plot on notebook paper. Then they can go to google classroom to complete the questions.

What is presented in the video?

The definition of place value is given. We then start with the one's period on a place value chart and discuss how the values of digits change as a digit moves to the left. The place value chart will gradually grow to include the million's period and we will look at how the value of a digit changes as it moves one place, two places, etc. to the left, so that students can see that a digit changes by 10 x as it moves one place, 100 x as it moves two places, and so on. I will then take them through several problems using specific numbers as I show how the values of digits changed between two given numbers. For example, how much greater is the value of the 6 in 657,843 compared to the 6 in 65,378. They will then answer 4 questions about the line plot they create.

How might I use this place value activity?

Some suggestions are:

• Upload the place value video to Google Classroom during digital learning for your students to watch. Then have students complete the 4 questions.
• Project the video in the classroom for the whole class to watch together to introduce a lesson. Continue with other activities for the day. Then have them complete the printable version of the 4 questions.
• Project it to finish out a daily lesson, and then use it as a formative assessment.
• Have students watch and complete as a math center activity.
• Have students watch as their homework and be ready to discuss the next day.
• Use it however you would like with your students, but it may not be posted for public display on the internet.

I hope your students love learning about place value of larger numbers and how the values of digits changes as they move left. :-)
