problem_activity: Narrative
The purpose of this How Many Do You See is to allow students to use place value language to describe the value of the base-ten blocks they see. Students may provide answers that indicate the number of blocks they see, while others may indicate the value of the blocks.
If students do not bring it up, ask about the value of the blocks.
