Y5 investigate very large numbers
Year 5 have been reviewing how to read and write numbers to 100 000.
We then quickly moved onto numbers to 1 000 000. They used concrete materials to represent numbers to 1 000 000, including number discs and place-value charts. They were able to compare numbers to 1 000 000 using their knowledge of place value, then completing the unit by making number patterns and rounding numbers to the nearest 10, 1000, 10 000 and 100 000.
