Choose whether to display numbers with or without commas, accommodating different teaching standards and contexts.

 

PLACE VALUE IN ACTION

   

Partitioning Practice

Use the tool to teach and reinforce partitioning. Students can break numbers down into their component values (e.g., 562 as 5 hundreds, 6 tens and 2 ones), gaining deeper insight into number structure.

 

Range of Values

The tool supports numbers from 0 to 9,999,999.999, ensuring a wide scope for learning activities. Whether working with small decimals or large whole numbers, students have the flexibility to explore various numerical scenarios.

 

Hands-On Learning

Students can drag and adjust values in individual place value boxes, actively engaging with concepts like regrouping and rounding. Watching the total number update in real-time provides instant feedback and deepens understanding.

 

Clear and Accessible Design

The intuitive interface ensures both teachers and students can focus on learning without distractions. Adjust settings, enter numbers, and explore place values with ease.

 

Mastering place value is crucial for building strong mathematical foundations. By understanding how numbers are structured, students gain confidence in performing essential operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. The Place Value Mat Digi-Tool makes this learning process interactive, visual, and engaging.
