Description
This activity helps reinforce large number place value to the billions using real world applied math: the populations of countries around the world. It is interesting and relevant for students in intermediate or middle school grades (grades 4-7), and it could easily tie in with your social studies curriculum!
How to Use:
- Print one double-sided worksheet for each student.
- If students have internet access, they can search for the population of each country independently.
- If not, you can find the populations and read them aloud for students to record: this is a great way to practice working with large numbers accurately.
- Then, students need to complete many math tasks with the numbers: rounding, converting to decimal millions, ordering, estimating, writing in expanded form, and calculating.
This activity works well when completed in partners, small groups, or independently!
