	MathSteps: Grade 2: Place Value to 1,000: What Is It?
		Place value is the basis of our entire number system.
		A place value system is one in which the position of a digit in a number determines its value.
		Place value is vitally important to all later mathematics.

	SparkNotes: Decimals: Place Value and Comparing Decimals
		Just as "ones," "tens," and "hundreds" are used to describe place value for whole numbers, there are terms that describe place value for decimals: tenths, hundredths, thousandths, ten thousandths, hundred thousandths, millionths, etc. These terms are used from left to right, starting with the first numeral after the decimal point.
		The number 78.304 has a "7" in the tens place, an "8" in the ones place, a "3" in the tenths place, a "0" in the hundredths place, and a "4" in the thousandths place.
		Because our system is base ten, a value of 10 in one place is equal to a value of 1 in the place to the left: 10 thousandths is equivalent to 1 hundredth, 10 hundredths is equivalent to 1 tenth, 10 tenths is equivalent to 1 one, and so on.

	Place Value Prowl
		Standard: Identifies place value for a given digit in numbers through 999,999 and determines the effect that changing a given digit will have on the value of the number.
		Students will then be asked to recognize which digit is in what place value and name the value of that digit.
		The teacher will use the questions on the Place Value Prowl handout to assess that students recognize that changing a digit changes the value of a number.

		The number 721040 has a 7 in the hundred thousands place, a 2 in the ten thousands place, a one in the thousands place, a 4 in the tens place, and a 0 in both the hundreds and ones place.
		The expanded form of a number is the sum of its various place values.
		Similarly, to round a number to any place value, we find the number with zeros in all of the places to the right of the place value being rounded to that is closest in value to the original number.
