Expanded Shells

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Practice expanded and standard notation in this beach-themed addition activity. You will need to cut out the shell templates, which are in three groups: ones, tens, and hundreds. Learners choose one from each group, then use the activity provided to write the total value in expanded and standard form. This offers great practice in place value, as well. Good for kinesthetic learners!
