Practice identifying the number of 'tens' and 'ones' in two-digit numbers with this fun spin activity.
Two Digit Number Place Value Activity
Use this teaching resource in the classroom when exploring place value and when helping students to understand that two-digit numbers are comprised of tens and ones. Choose between a Base-10 block spinner and a 0 to 9-digit number spinner. Print, cut out, and laminate a ‘tens’ and ‘ones’ spinner and attach the arrows with a brass fastener.
Place students into small groups. Provide each group with a ‘tens’ and ‘ones’ spinner and each student with a worksheet. Students spin the ‘tens’ spinner and the ‘ones’ spinner and then record the two-digit number they have made on their worksheet.
How Do Base Ten Blocks Help with Place Value?
Base-10 blocks are an effective manipulative to use when students are learning about place value. By using this resource along with Base-10 blocks for students to manipulate you are providing an extremely tactile activity. As students group and ungroup the blocks, they can see how each digit in the two digit number represents a specific place value.
Also, as the Base-10 blocks come in different sizes, they represent the ones and tens visually and physically, demonstrating how numbers are composed of different place values.
