Enduring Understanding:
Essential Questions:
 Equate a number’s word name, its standard form, and
its expanded form.
 Understand that the position of a digit in a number
represents place value. (The PLACE determines the

 Know that we use a base-ten number system (10’s are
10 more than 1, 100’s are 10 more than 10, ect.)
 Know place value is essential when comparing
numbers both verbally and symbolically.
 Computational fluency requires efficient, accurate
and flexible methods for computing.
 How does understanding the structure of the number
system help you solve problems?
 How does the position of a digit in a number affect its
value?
 In what ways can numbers be composed and
decomposed?
 How are place value patterns repeated in numbers?
 What are different models of and models for addition
and subtraction?
 How can you represent rational numbers in multiple
ways?
