A digit is one of the symbols of a number system. In our number system we use the digits 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9.

An integer is any positive or negative whole number or zero. E.g. -2, 0, 153 are all examples of integers.

Securing understanding of place value in integers

Maths

This unit on place value allows pupils to develop the skills needed to estimate and round values. By understanding the value of each digit, pupils can determine what other values are close to the original value. It continues the exploration of the infinite nature of sets of numbers.

This unit looked at the composition of numbers containing up to 7 digits and how to read these numbers 

Place value

Using the digit cards, make the largest 6-digit integer possible

Which of these integers are written with correct spacing?

Starting with the smallest, sort these integers into ascending order.

How many unique integers can be made from these digits?

The value of the integer stays the same if the 1000s and 10s digits are swapped

The smallest 4-digit integer can be made by swapping the 10s and 100s digits

The value of the integer decreases if the 10s and 1s digits are swapped

The value of the integer stays the same if the first and last digits are swapped

Which statements are true for the integer 3830?

How many different digits are there in our number system?

What is the missing value in this partitioning model?

What is the value of the digit 5 in the number 25 381

Match the integer to the multiple of 1000 it is closest to.
