Highest Number
Purpose:To help students order numbers with 3-digits or 4-digits.
1. The teacher and a student (or two students) demonstrate the
game on the chalkboard.
2. Students play in pairs, sharing one score sheet. Players take
turns to roll a die to try to make the highest number they can.
Once a number has been placed in a column its position cannot
be changed. The student who makes the higher number wins that
game.
3. Students play several games to determine an overall winner.
4. The teacher ties the lesson together by asking, What is the
largest possible number you can score? (9999 if you are using 0
9 dice and playing a 4-digit game.) Who scored closest to this?
What was your highest number? What was your lowest number?
5. Some of the results may be written on cards and pinned onto a
clothesline to help students order 3-digit and 4-digit numbers.
Variations 1. Use 16 dice or 09 dice. 2. Total numbers after
several games.
Guess My Number
A student thinks of a number between 1 and 1000 and challenge
students to ask questions that will identify the number in the
least number of guesses. The student who has selected the
number is only allowed to answer yes or no.
Good questions that focus on cutting out unneeded numbers can
be identified such as is it more than 500? or is it an even
number?
Each student to type a number of five digits or more into a
calculator. Without speaking, students order themselves
according to number displayed in ascending order. Students call
out number in order.
Variation: Use sticky labels to place a number on each students
back. Students move around and may ask one question of each
person they meet. That person can only answer yes or no.
Students sit down when they have been identified their number.

Greedy Pig
1. To play this game you need an ordinary 6-sided die.
2. Each turn of the game consists of one or more rolls of the
die. You keep rolling until you decide to stop, or until you
roll a 1. You may choose to stop at any time.
3. If you roll a 1, your score for that turn is 0.
4. If you choose to stop rolling before you roll a 1, your score
is the sum of all the numbers you rolled on that turn.
5. Each player has 10 turns.
6. The player with the highest score wins.

Make 100
1. The aim is to score 100 or as close as possible without
busting (passing 100).
2. The teacher rolls the die and announces the number. Students
may choose to multiply that number by 10 or score it at face
value, e.g. 2 may be scored as 2 or 20. Once a decision has been
made it cannot be changed.
3. The die is rolled again. If the number is (say) 4, students
decide to score this as 4 or 40 and record it, completing the
progressive total.
4. This continues until 9 rolls have been completed. Note: All rolls
must be used.
5. The student who scores 100 or the number closest to (but
below) 100 wins.
Variations
(a) Use a 16 die or a 09 die. Ask students how they will vary
their strategies if you change from a 16 to a 09 die.
(b) Set a different target.
(i) Target = 200 How will you vary your strategies from the
original game? (Students should realise that they will need to
multiply by 10 more often.)
(ii) Target = 1000 and you may multiply by 100 once and once
only during the game.
(c) Allow addition or subtraction of each number rolled.

this.

Money Problems
Provide students with a range of word problems, involving money
for them to solve, examples may include:
1. Lawrence gives $8.88 to Jessica. If Lawrence started with
$94.28, how much money does he have left?
2. Bruce has $81.65 and Rachel has $60.21. How much more
does Bruce have than Rachel?
3.
After buying some tickets for $93.72, George has $8.33
left. How much money did George have to begin with?
Samuel gives $26.94 to Catherine. If Samuel started with $31.03,
how much money does
he have left?
9. Jacob had $109.85. He bought a shirt for $25.50, a pair of
thongs for $7.98 and a hat for $11.36. How much money did
Jacob spend altogether and how much money does he have left?
10. Maddi washed the car and earned $10.70, she mowed the
lawn for $15.55 and babysat a neighbours child for $27.63. How
much pocket money has Maddi earned? If she is saving for
concert tickets that cost $75.50, how much more money does
she need to earn? Students need to write a statement with each
of their solutions, identifying the strategy they used.
Inverse Operations
Write 468 + 573 on the board and ask students to suggest how
they might work out the total. Discuss suggestions and
demonstrate the informal method of adding the most or the least
significant digits first, i.e.
468 468

900

130 130
11 900

Repeat with 4676 + 768. Emphasise the importance of lining up
the digits correctly according to their place value. Set similar
questions for students to practise the method on. Check answers
and go over any the students found difficult, asking students to
prompt each stage of the calculations.
- How can we check that the answers are correct?
Discuss suggestions and remind students addition and
subtraction are inverse operations.
Total Age

school? Students suggest ways to determine the distance, such
as checking the odometer on the car or bus, borrowing a trundle
wheel and measuring the walk to school, estimating the distance
using a street directory. Teacher uses website

attention to the fact that the words used for subtraction may
require the operation to be performed with the numbers in the
reverse order to that in which they are stated in the question. Eg,
'9 take away 3' & 'reduce 9 by 3' require the operation to be
performed with the numbers in the same order as they are
presented in the question (ie 9 3). However, 'take 9 from 3',
'subtract 9 from 3' and '9 less than 3'require the operation to be
performed with the numbers in the reverse order to that in which
they are stated in the question (ie 3 9).

In Stage 3, mental strategies need to be continually reinforced.
Students may find recording (writing out) informal mental
strategies to be more efficient than using formal written
algorithms, particularly in the case of subtraction. Eg, 8000

algorithm. Written strategies using informal mental strategies

The answer will therefore be 7000 + 300 + 20 + 7 = 7327.
Students could share possible approaches and compare them to

that areas are horizontal or vertical flat surfaces because such surfaces
are most commonly measured. Students are likely to measure the area
of the top of their desk, but not the areas of its sides, underneath
surface, or legs. The areas of these surfaces are usually not measured,
nor are other hard to measure areas, such as curved or irregular
surfaces.
It is important in Stage 3 that students establish a real reference for the
square kilometre and the hectare, eg locating an area of one square
kilometre or an area of one hectare on a local map.
When the students are able to measure efficiently and effectively using
formal units, they should be encouraged to apply their knowledge and
skills in a variety of contexts. Students could be encouraged to find more
efficient ways of counting such as finding how many squares in one row
and multiplying this by the number of rows.
