Show the students how to fold the expander: the shaded rectangles are folded in half<br />

with a ‘valley fold’ and then a ‘mountain fold’ is used to put the shaded rectangle behind<br />

the white rectangle on its le.<br />

Students enjoy the challenge of folding the paper correctly - somewhat like a fan. Help<br />

them to fold (shaded rectangles are folded in half with a ‘valley fold’ and then a ‘mountain<br />

fold’ is used to put the shaded rectangle behind the white rectangle on its le). For<br />

example, in the photo below, the ‘ones’ rectangle is folded in half (with a valley fold) and<br />

then behind the digit 3 which is on its le.<br />

Below are some pictures of a number expander with 3 place value columns, showing<br />

various ways of ‘expanding’ (or renaming) 236.<br />

Here is a fully open blank number<br />

expander with 3 blank place value<br />

columns .<br />

The number 236 has been wrien in the<br />

blank place value columns. This shows<br />

236 = 2 hundreds + 3 tens + 6 ones<br />

This shows 236 = 2 hundreds + 36 ones<br />

This shows 236 = 23 tens + 6 ones<br />

This shows 236 = 236 ones<br />

This is a ‘closed’ number expander showing 236.<br />
