Answer» Correct Answer - Option 3 : Using beads and strings

Explanation:

  • Bead strings are ideal for helping to maintain student interaction in the classroom.
  • If a student reads 203 as twenty-three then a teacher can use beads and strings activity.
  • This activity is great for emergent learners during maths lessons.
  • They are perfect for both group as well as individual led work, encouraging problem-solving, number exploration, and familiarity with multiples of ten.

Beads and Strings activity:

  • Bead strings are used for visualizing numbers with a moveable object.
  • A teacher can hide or cover certain parts of a bead string so the students find it easier to count each bead by counting it one by one. 
  • We can Use bag tags to label the beginning and end of the string as 0 and 100.
  • A 10 bead string contains five white and five red beads.

Recognizing the number 203:

  • Split the beads to represent the numbers 20 & 23, then ask the pupil what number it represents.
  • From the beads below, you could prompt students to count all the green beads, and write down the number it represents.
  • Then by doing this activity a pupil comes to know that there is a difference between 23 & 203. So 

So Misconception of Recognising a Number can be cleared by Beads and Strings activity.  So Option 3 is the correct answer.

Other Uses of beads and strings activity:

  • Recognizing numbers
  • Place value
  • Estimation skills
  • Large numbers
  • Addition and subtraction
