When you click on the actual link "Instructional Strategies for Mental Math" you get a lot of good teaching strategies that are applicable to all content areas, any grade level, not just math. The pictures on this MathWire link are all math examples though. The hidden gem on this link is embedded in the "Show me the Answer" strategy called "More Place Value Activities". There are many more VALUABLE links for teaching strategies, but the focus of this evaluation I'm going to focus on this Place Value link. On this "More Place Value Activities" link you will find a bunch of great place value activities such as: "Number Line-Up", "Build a Number", "Decimal Build a Number", "Place Value Games - High Number Toss Game" and "Problem Solving Tasks - Largest 3-digit Sum or Smallest 3-digit Difference." There are also links to online place value activities. PDF files for all activities are included, instructions, game pieces, game recording sheets. A very thorough set of materials that any teacher will appreciate. Only 1 link didn't work "High Toss Decimal Version Game". Otherwise a very thorough and valuable resource! I plan to use this next month! These "Place Value Activities" align to 4.NBT.A.2 and 4.NBT.A.1
