Lesson Progression
Tell students that today we are having a place value party. They need to deliver invitations to the party. n order to do so, they will need to work with house numbers.
1.) Students will access the hyperdoc. They will begin the lesson by reviewing the information previously learned about rounding. They will take notes while reviewing. A Khan Academy video is linked in the resources.
2.) Next, students will create invitations to the place value party. This is a great opportunity to tie in area and perimeter as well.
3. Have students complete independent practice. They will drag and drop numbers into the correct place in order to build the numbers based on the clues given.
4.) To finish the lesson, students will complete a flipgrid video. They will give a number and pick one of the digits and give the value for that digit. They will explain how they knew the value of the digit. Ex.) "My number is 5,642. The value of the 6 is 600 or 6 hundreds. I know that because it is in the hundreds place and 6 hundreds would be the same as 600." This will help you to see their metacognitive process.
**If you would like, decorate the room with party supplies to engage learners.
Teacher Notes
You will need to create a flipgrid in order for students to complete lesson. Upload your link to the hyperdoc for easy access for students.
Differentiation: Refocus on the value of numbers in each place. Once solidified, revisit concept of rounding. Combine the two concepts to bridge the knowledge gap. If necessary, begin with smaller places.
Extension: Continue to the thousands, ten thousands, etc. OR decimals.

This is the website you need to use in order to create a Flipgrid for students to post on. Once you create the Flipgrid, paste your code into the Hyperdoc. This will allow students to have access.
