Place Value: Place Value Mix-Up is a FUN hands-on activity designed to help students practice place value skills with numbers through the hundred millions. Skills include standard form, word form, expanded form, expanded form with the values pulled out, ordering, and determining values of particular digits. The activity taps into your kinesthetic learners by giving them the ability to manipulate numbers and build them. It takes minimal preparation and will be ready to go the day you decide to use it.

Measuring lesson to supplement the Leo Lionni story book Inch by Inch that includes a read aloud, discussion, and hands on measurement. Students will measure using inches, centimeters, and millimeters. This activity combines literature, math, and science. My students loved this simple, yet engaging lesson to review measurement. You will find the needed materials easily in your home or classroom- no need to buy a thing!
