The Value of a Digit

Numbers and Operations in Base Ten

  • CCSS.Math.5.NBT.1 Recognize that in a multi-digit number, a digit in one place represents 10 times as much as it represents in the place to its right and 1/10 of what it represents in the place to its left.

The Value of a Digit - Part 1

Welcome to the first part of our two-part video series on 'The Value of a Digit'! In this tutorial, we will be using block-based coding to help 5th grade students master the CCSS Math.5.NBT.1 standard.

Part one will focus on setting up the program to randomly generate a decimal number and a target digit. We will then ask the user what the value of the digit is.

By following along with this tutorial, students will not only strengthen their math skills but also develop their coding abilities. Let's get started!

Part Two: The Value of a Digit

Welcome back to Math Meets Code! In this tutorial series, we are focusing on helping 5th grade students master the CCSS Math.5.NBT.1 standard through block-based coding projects. In part one, we set up a program that randomly generates a decimal number and a target digit. Now, in part two, we will take it a step further and ask the user to determine the value of the digit.

By following along with this tutorial, your students will not only strengthen their math skills but also develop their coding abilities. Let's dive in!
