Numbers to 10,000

REPRESENTATIONAL
MathematicsNumber Representation & Place Value|Ages 8—9|ID: mt_lC_Q5mSL_I

Identify, represent, and estimate numbers up to 10,000 using different representations

Mastery Evidence

  • Represent a four-digit number on a place-value chart or with base-ten materials
  • Estimate where a number falls on a 0–10,000 number line
  • Match different representations of the same number (e.g. expanded form, place-value counters, numeral)

Assessment Prompt

“Can [child] mark a number like 6,400 roughly in the right place on a number line that goes from 0 to 10,000 — and explain how they decided where to put it?”

  • Representing Numbers hard

    Representing to 10,000 extends representing to 1000

    • The three digits of a three-digit number hard

      Representing numbers requires place-value understanding
