Lesson 5

Base-Ten Hoppers

Est. Class Sessions: 2–3

Developing the Lesson

Part 2. Helping Professor Peabody Compare

Base-Ten Hops. Have students complete Questions 1–10 on the Helping Professor Peabody pages in the Student Activity Book.

  • How are your two number lines alike? How are they different?
  • How many hops of ten did you make for each number line? How many hops of one?
  • Did you move backward on any hops? Why or why not?
  • Which way is the most efficient or easiest to think about in your head? Why?

Use Helping Professor Peabody Check-In: Questions 7–10 in the Student Activity Book to assess each student's ability to represent large numbers using a number line and number sentences. Note students' abilities to compose and decompose numbers using ones, tens, and hundreds [E2] and to show different partitions of numbers using number lines and number sentences [E3].

Lesson 6 Workshop: Place Value provides targeted practice.
