More Than a Hundred Steps
place value · counting forward and backward on a hundred chart
To count numbers on a hundreds chart [2.NBT.A.1a].
More Than a Hundred Steps is a Grade 2 place-value game played on a hundred chart. Red cards move a player forward and black cards move backward, so every turn requires students to count from the current location and track direction on the chart. The changing position makes the hundred chart an active number line rather than a static reference.
Use it for partner or small-group practice when students are learning to count forward and backward within 100. Ask students to predict the landing number before moving the game piece so the counting strategy stays visible.
