1. Write number sentences to show how each base-ten hopper moved. Compare your sentences with a partner. Answer these questions:
    • Do you agree that both number sentences are correct? If not, correct them.
    • How do your sentences match the moves on the number line?

Use the Helping Professor Peabody pages in the Student Activity Book to practice showing partitions of numbers on a number line and with number sentences.

Draw number lines to show how the base-ten hoppers move.

  • Show above the hop the distance and direction of each move.
  • Show below the number line where the hopper lands after each move.
    1. The base-ten hopper starts at 0 and moves forward 116.
    2. Write a number sentence that shows how the hopper moved.
    1. Show two ways that a base-ten hopper can start at 28 and move forward 43.
    2. Where does the hopper stop?
    1. The base-ten hopper starts at 200 and moves back 31.
    2. Write a number sentence that shows how the hopper moved and where it stopped.
    1. Show two ways that a base-ten hopper can start at 74 and move back 26.
    2. Where does the hopper stop?
