Place value helps us understand what numbers mean by showing how many ones are in each number; for numbers 1-10, each number is made up of that many ones (e.g., 4 means 4 ones, 7 means 7 ones, and 10 means 10 ones).

Year 1 | Maths | Numbers | Place Value(10)
Added:Hello little learners. Welcome back to our fun maths lesson. Today we're going to learn about place value to 10. Place value helps us understand what numbers mean. We'll count objects, look at numbers, play games, and become place value experts. Are you ready? Let's begin.
Place value tells us how many ones are there in a number. Today we're learning numbers from 1 to 10. Every number is made of ones. Let's count together. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10. Fantastic.
Let's count how many cubes we can see.
How many cubes can you see in this?
Let's count. 1 2 3. Three cubes. The number is three. Three means three ones.
Now count this this number of cubes.
Ready? 1 2 3 4 5 Five cubes.
Five means five ones. Wonderful.
Let's make some numbers. Can you build four with four counters?
Yes, you can. Great. Four means four ones.
So now if we want to build seven, we have to use seven ones. So seven counters or seven blocks.
It's the same for if we want to build nine. If you want to build nine, we need nine ones. So we need nine counters.
Okay. So let's play a game. Okay. I'm going to tell you a number which has a specific number of ones. You have to tell me which number that is. Okay.
Which number has six ones?
That's right. Six. Great job.
Which number has two ones?
Two. Wonderful.
Which number has 10 ones?
10. Amazing. Okay, now we're going to count the objects. Okay, how many apples can we see? Let's count. 1 2 3 4.
Four apples. The number is four. How many stars can we see?
1 2 3 4 5 6 seven. Very good. There are seven stars.
Okay, let's see what you've learned. How many ones are there in the number four?
Four ones. Excellent. How many ones are in the number nine?
Nine 1 ones. Wonderful. What number has 10 ones?
10. Amazing. The easiest way to think about it is think about the ones as counters. So, how many counters would you need to make the number nine? You would need nine counters. So, nine ones.
Today we learned that numbers to 10 are made of ones. Let's remember 1 is 1 1, 2 is 2 1's, 3 is 3 1's, all the way to 10 is 10 1's. Fantastic work. You did an amazing job learning place value today.
You counted objects. You matched numbers. And you learned that numbers to 10 are made up of ones. Next time we'll learn about tens and ones with even bigger numbers. See you next time.
Bye-bye, little learners.
