Gifted and Talented Teacher creates high-quality teaching resources and printable teacher resources designed to support calm, organised, and engaging learning environments. From curriculum-aligned teaching tools to functional classroom decor, our resources are classroom-ready and designed to save teachers time.

Teach students to multiply and divide whole numbers and decimals by 10, 100 and 1000 using place value with this complete teaching bundle. Students explore the multiplicative relationship between places, show each digit moving on a place value chart and explain how the position and value of every digit changes while the decimal point stays fixed.

Combining a lesson plan, a 46-slide editable teacher presentation, three differentiated student activities, an exit ticket with interpretation guide and a hands-on Slide It! Place Value Slider game, this curriculum-aligned bundle provides everything you need to teach the lesson from start to finish.

Built around the I Do, We Do, You Do model, students move from explicit teacher modelling to guided practice and independent application. They multiply and divide by powers of 10 on a place value chart, use zeros as place holders, find missing numbers, compare calculations such as 3.7 × 100 and 3700 ÷ 10, and explain their thinking using mathematical language.
