1. License Plate Math Students will use license plates do practice place value

2. License plates and place value • Collect or make up license plates. • Example 785-wrx 855-pvs • Assign letters a numerical value • Example A, B,C,D = 1 E,F,G,H =2 • Place these letters and number values into a key, so that students can find the number they will be using to complete the operation. A = 1 F = 2 L = 3 X = 5 • Set up practice sheets, and license plates (index cards) for students to work with. • Demonstrate to students how to use license platesand key to solve. • Demonstrate how to set problem up. • This can be used to compare numbers value is it is greater than, less than or equal to. • Students can write out how many 1’s, 10’s , and 100’s in each #. • In addition students can take the numbers and write out in extended format the value of the number

3. Name:_______________________________________________ Date: ______________________ Directions: Look at the license plates. Take the letters in the license place and find the corresponding number in the key below. Each letter represents a corresponding number.. Example: AEX = 123 Directions: compare the values of the numbers. Greater than/less than/ equal to 842 - GNE 985 - ABY Directions: Write out the numbers using expanded notation. KEY: A=1 B=1 C=1 D=2 E=2 F=2 G=3 H=3 I=3 J=4 K=4 L=4 M=5= N=5= O=5 P=1 Q=1 R=1 S=2 T=2 U=2 V=3 W=3 X=3 Y=4 Z=4
