The Yummy Place Value: A Unique Teaching Resource for Grade 2 Students
Designed to introduce the concept of place value in a fun way, The Yummy Place Value is a creative educational tool for Grade 2 students. The unique feature of this resource is its innovative use of food items like Rice Krispies, Twizzlers and Dots to teach standard and expanded forms of numbers.
An Immersive Learning Experience
This exceptional learning resource offers students an opportunity to participate in active learning. As opposed to traditional worksheets, students get hands-on experience by using these tasty treats to create physical representations of hundreds, tens and ones. They then identify these numbers in their standard forms (e.g., 706), thereby facilitating visual or tactile modes of learning.
Promoting Reflection and Creativity
The Yummy Place Value also promotes reflection among learners. Students are encouraged to sketch their creations and explain what they have learnt from the activity, thereby demonstrating comprehension while fostering creativity.
Extended Learning Opportunities: Supplementary activities like “Read All About It” further stimulate student engagement by transforming the classroom into a museum walk where learners guess the value of food-as-numbers sculptures or create new entries with descriptions!
Educators can distribute this teaching material easily as it comes in PDF format.
Not only is it useful for face-to-face teaching but also apt for remote classes through screen sharing tools during online sessions.
The Yummy Place Value provides an innovative method for second graders to explore Mathematics—with engaging activities reinforcing their knowledge on place value concept—all while keeping them entertained!
An ideal inclusion for homeschooling parents' toolkit or any public school teachers seeking fresh alternative teaching material!
