Let's solve this step-by-step based on the worksheet titled
"Trace, Show and Expand" which focuses on
place value.
We are given a table with four columns:
1.
Trace it – Trace the number.
2.
Grid it – Represent the number using tens and ones in a grid.
3.
Picture it – Draw base-ten blocks (tens rods and ones cubes).
4.
Expand it – Write the number as a sum of tens and ones.
The first row is already completed for us:
12 → 1 ten + 2 ones → 10 + 2 = 12
Now let’s complete each row one by one.
---
🔹 Row 2: Number = 5
#### Trace it:
- Trace the number
5.
#### Grid it:
- Tens: 0 (since 5 has no tens)
- Ones: 5
- So, fill in:
-
Tens: empty (0)
-
Ones: five dots or marks
#### Picture it:
- Draw
five small squares (ones cubes), since there are no tens.
#### Expand it:
- 0 tens = 0
- 5 ones = 5
- So:
0 + 5 = 5
✔ Final answer:
0 + 5 = 5
---
🔹 Row 3: Number = 24
#### Trace it:
- Trace the number
24.
#### Grid it:
- Tens: 2
- Ones: 4
- So:
-
Tens: two dots
-
Ones: four dots
#### Picture it:
- Draw
two long rods (each representing 10) = 20
- Draw
four small squares (ones) = 4
#### Expand it:
- 2 tens = 20
- 4 ones = 4
- So:
20 + 4 = 24
✔ Final answer:
20 + 4 = 24
---
🔹 Row 4: Number = 16
#### Trace it:
- Trace the number
16.
#### Grid it:
- Tens: 1
- Ones: 6
- So:
-
Tens: one dot
-
Ones: six dots
#### Picture it:
- Draw
one rod (representing 10)
- Draw
six small squares (ones)
#### Expand it:
- 1 ten = 10
- 6 ones = 6
- So:
10 + 6 = 16
✔ Final answer:
10 + 6 = 16
---
🔹 Row 5: Number = 32
#### Trace it:
- Trace the number
32.
#### Grid it:
- Tens: 3
- Ones: 2
- So:
-
Tens: three dots
-
Ones: two dots
#### Picture it:
- Draw
three rods (each = 10) → total 30
- Draw
two small squares (ones) → total 2
#### Expand it:
- 3 tens = 30
- 2 ones = 2
- So:
30 + 2 = 32
✔ Final answer:
30 + 2 = 32
---
✔ Final Completed Table:
| Trace it | Grid it | Picture it | Expand it |
|----------|------------------|------------------|------------------|
| 12 | Tens: ●, Ones: ●● | [1 rod, 2 cubes] | 10 + 2 = 12 |
| 5 | Tens: , Ones: ●●●●● | [5 cubes] | 0 + 5 = 5 |
| 24 | Tens: ●●, Ones: ●●●● | [2 rods, 4 cubes] | 20 + 4 = 24 |
| 16 | Tens: ●, Ones: ●●●●●● | [1 rod, 6 cubes] | 10 + 6 = 16 |
| 32 | Tens: ●●●, Ones: ●● | [3 rods, 2 cubes] | 30 + 2 = 32 |
> 💡
Note: In "Grid it", you can use dots or tally marks to represent the number of tens and ones.
