Access Point #: MAFS.5.NBT.1.AP.1aArchived Access Point

Compare the value of a number when it is represented in different place values of two three-digit numbers.
Clarifications:

Essential Understandings

Concrete:

  • Given two models of base ten blocks on a place value chart, compare the value of the same digit used in different place value positions (e.g., 123 where 2 represents 2 tens and 142 where 2 represents 2 ones).
Representation:
  • Recognize the value of a digit based on its place in a three-digit number (e.g., the 2 in 125 represents 2 tens or 20).
  • Compare the value of the same digit used in different place value positions (e.g., 123 where 2 represents 2 tens and 142 where 2 represents 2 ones).
General Information
Number: MAFS.5.NBT.1.AP.1a
Category: Access Points
Cluster: Understand the place value system. (Major Cluster)

Clusters should not be sorted from Major to Supporting and then taught in that order. To do so would strip the coherence of the mathematical ideas and miss the opportunity to enhance the major work of the grade with the supporting clusters.
