Lesson details

Key learning points

  1. We use commas to separate the thousands from the ones and the millions from the thousands.
  2. Grouping the digits in threes helps to read numbers.
  3. Grouping the digits in threes helps to write numbers.

Keywords

  • Comma - A comma is a punctuation mark used to indicate a break in a sentence. It looks like this ,

  • Factor - Factors are two or more numbers that we can multiply together to create a product.

  • Multiple - A multiple is the result of multiplying a number by another whole number.

Common misconception

Pupils struggle to articulate larger numbers, confusing when to give the place value unit within the number.

Provide a sentence stem like this: _ _ _ thousand and _ _ _ , encouraging the children to notice the groupings of thousands and ones.

Pupils will explore powers in greater detail at secondary school, however, this is an excellent opportunity for pupils to connect their understanding of squared and cubed notation to the language of powers and how these are formed.
