Introduction
What is place value? Is it how much something is worth? After completing this webquest, you will be able to tell me exactly what place value is.
It is extremely important for 1st graders to learn about place value when learning how to read numbers. Through this webquest, students will gain a clear understanding of breaking down numbers into tens and ones. This webquest is designed to meet the following standard:
CCSS.Math.Content.1.NBT.B.2
Understand that the two digits of a two-digit number represent amounts of tens and ones
Task
In this Webquest, you will be investigating how place values work. We will begin by watching a video that will explain how place value works. After watching the video, will be able to practice place value on your assigned laptop. Everyone in the class will then complete a sheet that proves that you have learned and studied place value. We will then come together in our teams and play Place Value Mystery Mansion. Detailed directions for this task will be found in PROCESS.
Process
Task 1
You will begin by opening your laptop and watching the following Youtube video about place value:

This video will help you understnad more about place value and how we use tens and ones to read and write numbers.
Task 2
Now that you have watched the video explaining how place value works, you will need to go to the following website:

While visiting this website, I want you to click lesson. This will work you through a lesson on place value. Continue to click NEXT until you reach the end of the lesson. After working through the lesson, I want you to click Practice. This will allow you to apply your place value skills to a few practice problems.
Task 3
Now I want to be sure if you are ready to prove your place value skills. I have a worksheet for you to complete. These are just a few problems showing that you know how to use your ones and tens to write and read numbers. You can get your manipulative pack our of your basket if needed. I also want you to label each exercise with tens and ones. After completing the worksheet, turn the worksheet into the "return" bin in the front of the class. You may now return to your desk so that your group can complete Task 4.
Task 4
Now, that you are in your teams. You will now play Place Value Mystery Mansion as a class on the Interactive SmartBoard. This will allow you more practice on place value and you can help each other if needed.
