Common misconception
Zero is a tricky concept for some pupils when it comes to place value. For example, pupils might struggle to read and understand the number 2,087, or struggle to express in numbers a representation.
Blank place value grids are an excellent scaffold. Give pupils ample opportunities to explore using them both with concrete resources such as counters and with numerals, practising reading and writing the number.
Keywords
Partition - The act of splitting an object or value down into smaller parts
