Download this teaching pack including a lesson plan, classroom activities and an interactive presentation to identify and record how the place value of the numerical digits in a number can change when counting forwards and backwards in different steps of thousands

Activities in this teaching pack include a set of cards to select different numbers in thousands to use when counting in steps of hundreds and a template to identify and record the matching sums that are one thousand more and less than different numbers in thousands.

The interactive presentation gets the children to explore how the place value of digits in a number can change when counting forwards and backwards in thousands.

This lesson is part of a maths scheme of work to get the children to investigate and record the place value of the numerical digits in different numbers to thousands by partitioning, ordering and comparing. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
