Understand numbers up to 10 million
Background knowledge • Our number system is a decimal system, so it is base 10. Each ‘place’ is ten times the value of the place to the right of it. The value of each digit is determined by its position in the number. Larger numbers are grouped in threes, separated by a space: 1 234 567. As long as pupils can read a threedigit number, they should be able to read any larger number. • Confusion often arises where there are several zeroes as place holders, such as four hundred thousand and six and 2 000 015. Help children to consider how many digits are needed: a number beginning with ‘million’ will be a seven-digit number, one number followed by two lots of three numbers separated by a space: __ __ __ __ __ __ __. For whole numbers, the more digits a number has, the larger it must be: any four-digit whole number is larger than any three-digit whole number. This is not true, however, of decimal numbers: 0·5 is larger than 0·46, for example.
Teaching Activity 1a (15 minutes) Understand numbers up to 10 million • Shuffle a set of digit cards, without the zero. Lay them out to form a six-digit number (smaller if necessary), separating the two sets of three cards with a small gap. Practise reading it together, pointing to the gap as you say ‘thousand’. Ask the children what the value of each digit is. Emphasise that they only need to be able to read three-digit numbers in order to read larger numbers. • Repeat with a seven-digit number, leaving a small gap between the first and second digit and the fourth and fifth. Point to the first gap as you say ‘million’. Ask children to give the value of selected digits. Rearrange the same cards, then read it again. Point to a number and ask: What is the value of this number now? • Replace one of the digits with a zero card and repeat. Rearrange the cards, putting the zero card in a different place. Repeat, until the zero card has been in all of the places (except millions). Ensure that children read these numbers correctly.

• Repeat with zeroes in several place holders, reading them carefully, for example, 2 009 005; 3 090 021. • Now say a seven-digit number and ask children to show that number, using digit cards or by writing it on a whiteboard. Repeat, ensuring you include some numbers involving zero, for example, two million, four thou-sand and eighty; three million, fifty thousand and five. • Ask each child to write an ‘interesting’ sevendigit number on a whiteboard; order the numbers by moving the boards to show from smallest to largest or largest to smallest. Ask: How do you know that this number is larger? Why is this number smaller than this one? How many ten thousands/ hundreds does this number have? • Repeat, but ask children to start their number with a specified number of millions, then ask for a specified number of millions and hundred thousands. Order again. Ask: Which digit do you have to look at to know which is the larger number?
• Write 5 000 000 + 400 000 + 30 000 + 8000 + 700 + 10 + 9. Ask: Can you write this number straight down without actually adding the numbers? Point out that this a place-value addition, so it is simply 5 438 719. • Repeat with the numbers not in place-value order and then with some missing, so that children have to use a zero in a place holder: 900 000 + 700 + 40 + 6 000 000 = 6 900 740.
Teaching Activity 1b (15 minutes) Understand numbers up to 10 million • Using Resource 1: Place-value grids, write some digits in the columns, starting with a sixdigit number, or smaller if necessary, and with no zero digits, for example, 123 456. Write the value of each digit, using the words at the top of the columns for support. (one hundred thousand, two lots of ten thousand: twenty thousand, three thousand…) Write the number on a whiteboard as a sum of the separate columns: 100 000 + 20 000 + 3 000 + 400 + 50 + 6. • Tell the children that, if they can read a threedigit number, then they can read any number. On the resource sheet, point out the bold line between the thousands and hundreds columns. Explain that this line represents the word ‘thousand’. Read the number together, emphasising the way the thousands are read as HTO with the word ‘thousand’ after it. Say: One hundred and twenty-three thousand, four hundred and fifty-six. • Repeat with a zero as one digit, then include more zeroes, for example, 457 019; 302 008; 700 016.
• Give the children six-digit numbers to write on their whiteboards. • Write a seven-digit number on the place-value grid. Ask: What word does this bold line represent? (million) Write the number as a sum on the whiteboard. Read the numbers together, ensuring that ones with zeroes are read correctly. • Give the children some seven-digit numbers to write down. • Ask each child to write an ‘interesting’ sevendigit number on a whiteboard; order the numbers by moving the boards to show from smallest to largest or largest to smallest. Ask: How do you know that this number is larger? Why is this number smaller than this one? How many ten thousands/ hundreds does this number have? • Repeat, but ask children to start their number with a specified number of millions, then ask for a specified number of millions and hundred thousands. Order again. Ask: Which digit do you have to look at to know which is the larger number? • Write 5 000 000 + 400 000 + 30 000 + 8000 + 700 + 10 + 9. Ask: Can you write this number straight down without actually adding the numbers? Point out that this a place-value addition, so is simply 5 438 719. • Repeat with the numbers not in place-value order and then with some missing, so that children have to use a zero in a place holder: 900 000 + 700 + 40 + 6 000 000 = 6 900 740.
