Relationship of Numbers in our Place Value System

One of the most important concepts a child can learn is number sense. This week we spent a lot of time investigating what happens as we move left or right in our number system, and comparing numbers in different places in our place value system. We related them to each other by describing their relationship. Using equations to describe the relationship is a pretty big concept for 4th graders to grasp. We spent lots of time writing equations to describe them. I tried to color code my journal examples so it makes sense.
