To diene, or not to diene, that is the question!

Maths
This week in maths we have been exploring place value and understanding the value of each digit in two and three digit numbers. 

We have explored this through a range of different mediums such as dienes, marbles and pictorial representations. The children have loved using the dienes to demonstrate their understanding of ones, tens and hundreds. The children are encouraged to vocalise their understanding of numbers through speaking frames within the lesson. 

• There are ten 1's in ten. 
• There are ten 10's in one hundred.
• There are ten 100's in one thousand.

Below are just a few images of our year 3 mathematicians hard at work using their place value charts to explore numbers and dienes. Well done year 3!
