They connect the representation of anumber on a place value chart and in expanded form. Studentsalso compare numbers using standard and expanded form. Notethat kilometres are introduced in this lesson.Differentiating InstructionStudents have learned that a number with more digits is greater than a number with fewer digits, up to 10 000.Explain that this also applies to greater whole numbers. Ensure that students understand that they should comparethe highest place value first, as it has the greatest value. Demonstrate with examples the importance of lining upthe digits correctly when comparing numbers; for example, have students compare 256 700 and 32 160.Students will also know that a number with more tens is greater than a number with fewer tens. Explain that thesame is true when comparing numbers in the thousands. For example, to compare 267 000 km with 389 000 km,say, “3 hundred thousands 2 hundred thousands, so 389 000 267 000.” Explain that if the value inthe highest place is the same, they should compare the value to the right. Have students compare 321 600 and256 700, then 256 700 and 239 100, and then 256 700 and 257 700.Help students connect the representation of a number on a place value chart and in expanded form. You maywant to begin with 4-digit numbers and build to 6-digit numbers. As an intermediate step, you may want to havestudents place number cards (0–9) on a place value chart to represent the number.Provide practice by having students play this game in 2 teams. Place 2 shuffled sets of 0–9 number cards facedown. On the chalkboard, draw 2 place value charts to the hundred thousands, 1 for each team. Teams take turnsdrawing the top card from their deck and placing the number on the place value chart. The object of the game isto make the greatest number, so students will need to be strategic about where they place each number. Once two6-digit numbers are formed, have students compare the numbers to determine which is greater.For students who need scaffolding during independent practice, provide Checking and Practising BLM 2.2.For students who need extra learning support, provide Learning BLM 2.2.Answers to Learning BLM 2.2Step 3: 48, 84, 44Step 4: 344 800, 348 400, 384 400Step 5: 4, 8, 4; 40 000, 8000, 4008, 4, 4; 300 000, 80 000, 4000, 400384 400; 384 400; 384 400Reflecting: You don’t need to include the 0s in expanded form because they don’t have any value.42 Overview 2.2: Using Expanded Form Copyright © 2009 by <strong>Nelson</strong> <strong>Education</strong> Ltd.

Others may realize thatthere are a large number of possible ways to fill the containerswith the popcorn. Encourage each student to share his or herpersonal strategy.Litres are introduced in this lesson. Litres and capacity areworked with in greater depth in Lesson 8.8.Differentiating InstructionIf students are having difficulty getting started, ask them what they would multiply the capacity of container Z byto get the capacity of container Y (10), and so on. Ask them what the pattern is. (multiply by 10 each time) Havethem compare this pattern to the pattern in the place values.As students represent numbers, encourage them to model the numbers in a variety of ways; for example, as well asrepresenting 43 as 4 tens and 3 ones, you can represent it as 3 tens and 12 ones or 43 ones. Help students extendthis understanding; for example, 120 000 is 120 thousands as well as 1 hundred thousand and 2 ten thousands.If students focus on using the standard expansion of the number and do not consider alternate forms, ask themto model 321 using counters and a place value chart (or base ten blocks), and then write the number in expandedform. (3 hundreds 2 tens 1 one) Then, ask students to trade some of the blocks to rename 321. ( for example,32 tens 1 one, or 3 hundreds 21 ones) Discuss why all the models represent 321.For students who need scaffolding of the exploration, provide Explore BLM-A 2.3.For students working in a lower number range, provide Explore BLM-B 2.3, which presents an adapted versionof the central problem for the lesson.

2.4 3.3Rounding NumbersStudent Book pp. 50–52Teacher’s Resource pp. 29–32GOALRound numbers to the nearest hundred thousand, thenearest ten thousand, and the nearest thousand.Preparation and PlanningMastersKey Question 3AssessmentQuestion• Checking and PractisingBLM 2.4 pp. 51–52• Learning BLM 2.4 pp. 53–54About the MathIn this lesson, students round numbers using place values andnumber lines. The context of the lesson is population, a contextwhere benchmark numbers are often used. Number lines areparticularly suitable for estimating numbers by relating themto benchmark numbers. Students use number lines marked atmultiples of 100 000, 10 000, and 1000 to round numbers tothe nearest hundred thousand, ten thousand, and thousand.Differentiating InstructionAsk students to create number lines that can be used to locate the positions of numbers to 10, then to 100, andthen to 1000. Engage students in a conversation about how the benchmarks they used are similar in each case,so that they can extend those notions beyond 1000. Then ask students to create number lines that can be used tolocate the positions of numbers to 10 000, to 100 000, and to 1 million. Ensure that students realize that thesame benchmark number can be used to estimate different numbers.Discuss with students why, when a population is given, it is usually not an exact number. Speak deliberately aboutthe difference between estimating and counting exactly; students require explicit exposure to situations where anestimate is all that is required. Other examples are animal populations, distances in astronomy, or large amountsof money.Encourage students to think of a number such as 422 536 as greater than 400 000 but less than 500 000. Forthose students who need it, provide practice rounding 4-digit numbers to the nearest hundred and thousand;for example, ask students to compare 3278 to 3000 and 4000, and then to 3200 and 3300. Ask them to explainhow they know which of these numbers is greater or less than 3278. Check that they are using place values tocompare numbers.For students who need scaffolding during independent practice, provide Checking and Practising BLM 2.4.For students who need extra learning support, provide Learning BLM 2.4, which presents an adapted version ofthe central problem for the lesson.

2.5 3.3Exploring One MillionStudent Book p. 53Teacher’s Resource pp. 33–35GOALDescribe one million in various ways.Preparation and PlanningMasters • Explore BLM-A 2.5 p. 56• Explore BLM-B 2.5 p. 57KeyAssessmentQuestionEntire explorationAbout the MathIn this exploration, students are asked to describe 1 million bycomparing 1 million of one thing with a smaller number ofsomething else. Students will draw on their understanding of themetric system to create interesting facts about 1 million. They willlikely need to multiply by 1 million and/or divide 1 million byanother number. A calculator can be used for such calculations.This exploration will be richer if students are able to use theInternet for research, but students can also use facts found inbooks and magazines.Differentiating InstructionAfter reading the book How Much Is a Million? by David M. Schwartz, provide students with a concreterepresentation of 1 million. Show 1 grain of salt and then 10 grains of salt. Make a tiny pile of salt and tellstudents that this is about 100 grains. Show a pinch of salt (about 1000 grains); 1 teaspoon (about410 000 grains; 1 tablespoon (about 100 000 grains); and 1 cup (about 1 000 000 grains).2Ask students what they would name the place value to the left of the hundred thousands place (they might say athousand thousands, which is an excellent response). Tell them that 1 million is 1000 thousands.Work through a couple of examples with students to demonstrate how to manipulate numbers to create factsinvolving 1 million. For example, a raisin is about 1 cm long, so 1 million raisins will be about 1 000 000 cmlong. Then, students can convert this length into one that is easier for them to visualize. There are 100 cm in 1 m,so 1 million cm 1 000 000 100 10 000 m. (Have students count to check that there are six 0s after the1 when they key 1 million into their calculators.) There are 1000 m in 1 km, so 10 000 m 10 000 1000 10 km. Suppose 10 km is the distance from the school to some landmark. Then, a row of 1 million raisins willstretch from the school to that landmark. Or, if a student lives about 1 km from the school, he or she could saythat 1 million raisins would make a row stretching from home to school 10 times. Help students see that anumber can have a continuous context, such as the distance between 2 places, or a discrete context, such as anumber of raisins. Encourage students to research topics they are interested in.For students who need assistance in getting started on the exploration, provide Explore BLM-A 2.5.For students who need extra learning support, provide Explore BLM-B 2.5, which guides students to create anumber of interesting facts about 1 million.Answers to Explore BLM-B 2.510, 10; 100 000, 100 000; 1 000 000; 1 000 000, VancouverCopyright © 2009 by <strong>Nelson</strong> <strong>Education</strong> Ltd.Overview 2.5: Exploring One Million55

They make connections betweendecimals and fractions, and learn that there are numerous namesfor the same decimal number. A key concept is that the wholegrid is 1 whole, just as the large base ten cube was 1 whole in themodel used in Lesson 2.1. It follows that, if 2 grids of the samesize are used to represent 2 decimals or fractions, and the sameamount of the grid is coloured for each, the 2 numbers have thesame value. Although they have the same value, they are differentbecause they cannot always be modelled on the same grid. Forexample, you can model 0.4 but not 0.40 on a tenths grid.Students need a solid understanding of the relationships between the units on the grids to be able to efficiently usegrids to represent numbers and to identify numbers represented on grids. Post a chart of these various relationshipsthat students can refer to. Provide examples tohelp students better understand the conceptHundredths and Thousandths Gridsof a placeholder; for instance, write 0.67 onthe chalkboard and ask students to model67 hundredths with counters on a decimal1 tenth10.110place value chart. Then, write 0.670 onthe board and ask students to model 1 column 10 hundredths10 0.10100670 thousandths below the first model onthe same chart. Ask what is different about100 thousandths100 0.1001000the models. (nothing) Ask what is differentabout the decimals. (One has a 0 in the1 hundredth 1 0.01thousandths place.)

Then, ask students to share their description with the rest of theclass, and record their answers on chart paper. (It is a decimal; There are 6 tenths; There is no whole number beforethe decimal.) Or, students may make a model.Next, have students describe 0.60. Again, have them share their descriptions and record their answers. (There are60 hundredths; The 6 is in the tenths place; The number is less than 1 because there is no whole number before thedecimal.) Or, students may make a model.Ask students if the following statement is true: “0.6 and 0.60 are equivalent decimals.” (Yes, because the 2 grids arethe same size, and each decimal is represented by the same amount of a grid.

The lessonprovides an example of how meaningful answers can often beobtained through estimation. Before students begin rounding,review the values of the sections on a thousandths grid:columns are tenths, squares are hundredths, and rectangles arethousandths. Encourage students to draw on their experiencerounding whole numbers—the conventions for roundingdecimals exactly parallel those used for whole numbers.Differentiating InstructionShow students 0.152 represented on a thousandths grid. Ask them to round 0.152 to the nearest hundredth:“How many full squares are coloured?” (15)“How many rectangles are coloured?” (2)“Are 2 rectangles close to 1 full square?” (no)“So, will you add another square to 15 when you round, or will you round 0.152 to 0.15?” (Round to 0.15)Ask students to round 152 to the nearest tenth (150) and compare this to the way they rounded 0.152. (It’s thesame, we dropped the 2.) Ask students to round 0.152 to the nearest tenth:“How many full columns are coloured?” (1)“What does 1 column represent?” (one tenth)“Besides the 10 squares in the column, how many full squares are coloured?” (5)“Will you count this half of a column as another tenth or not? Explain.” (Yes, because when the number in theplace you’re rounding off at is 5 or more, you count it as 1 in the next place.)“Do you need to consider the thousandths when you’re rounding to the nearest tenth?” (no)For students who need scaffolding during independent practice, provide Checking and Practising BLM 2.9.For students who need extra learning support, provide Learning BLM 2.9, which presents an adapted version ofthe central problem for the lesson.
