We at Presidium believe that the objective of a quality education for our students is to acquire the skills associated with learning and thinking in an interactive way. Our inquisitive Presidians got an opportunity to engross themselves in a series of interesting activities wherein, they developed an authentic understanding of place value by helping them construct meaning, quantify the numbers on the basis of expanded notation, through Maan cards, Dienes blocks and an interesting game, 'What's My Number'. They represented the given numbers in expanded form with the help of flash cards knowing when to exchange groups of zero. Followed by another game in which students represented the given numbers in expanded form using Dienes blocks. The interesting activities helped them to solidify their understanding of what a written number really represents in an enjoyable manner
