Place Value Discovery Game and Base Ten Block House Build
by Rebecca Bunnell
Students will enhance communication and teamwork skills through a base ten building project. They’ll start by listening to a story, brainstorming creative building exit strategies, and playing a game with place value mats. Next, they’ll draft their building plans, construct structures using place value blocks, and assess their classmates' creations.
