About This Product
Students lay the cards out by column, build a number, read it aloud and name the value of each digit. The same number is then written in expanded form, and two numbers can be compared by looking at the highest place-value column first. The cards work for teacher demonstrations, desk practice, pair and small-group work, and remedial lessons. The Place Value Educational Cards is available for supply within India and for export to Saudi Arabia, Zambia, Iceland, Timor-Leste, Nicaragua and Mozambique.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. Why do the cards include zero? When a column is empty, a zero card is added so that the other digits keep their correct place value in the number.
