Introduction
3rd Grade Webquest on understanding place value

2.NSBT.1 Understand place value through 999 by demonstrating that:
a. 100 can be thought of as a bundle (group) of 10 tens called a “hundred”;
b. the hundreds digit in a three-digit number represents the number of hundreds, the tens digit represents the number of tens, and the ones digit represents the number of ones;
c. three-digit numbers can be decomposed in multiple ways (e.g., 524 can be decomposed as 5 hundreds, 2 tens and 4 ones or 4 hundreds, 12 tens, and 4 ones, etc.).
2.NSBT.3 Read,
write and represent numbers through 999 using concrete models, standard form,
and equations in expanded form.
2.NSBT.5 Add and subtract fluently through 99 using knowledge of place value and properties of operations.
2.NSBT.6 Add up to four two-digit numbers using strategies based on knowledge of place value and properties of operations.
