The Power-Up Shift
SHIFTS LEFT: X10 MULTIPLIER
Moving 1 Place to the Left
Every time a digit moves exactly one spot to the left on the place value chart, its value becomes 10 times as much!
HUNDREDS 500
×10 Power
THOUSANDS 5,000
5,000 is 10 times as much as 500!
How to Calculate It
5 × 10 = 50
50 × 10 = 500
500 × 10 = 5,000
Arcade Pro-Tip: Every shift left is like gaining another zero level-up boost on your number value!

CO-OP CHALLENGE 1
Identify the Target Value
77,000
Question A
What is the value of the 7 in the ten thousands place?
Answer: 70,000
Question B
Compare the two 7s. How many times greater is the value of the left 7 than the right 7?
Answer: 10 times as much
Because the 7 in the ten thousands place is exactly one place to the left of the 7 in the thousands place!

Explain how a digit's value changes when it shifts left.

Scripted Gameplay Steps
0-5 MIN
Stage 1: Warm-Up & Clue Unlock
Do: Show Slide 2. Have students locate "Level 1" in Guided Notes.
Say: "Detectives, welcome to Level 5. We are cracking place value codes. Look at Slide 2. Our target code is 238,546. On your mark, fill in Clues A, B, and C in your notes. What is the value of that 8? Prove it to your neighbor!"
5-20 MIN
Stage 2: Chart Mapping & Modeling (The Shift Left Rule)
Do: Show Slide 3. Point to the adjacent 4s on screen.
Say: "Look at Slide 3 (444,000). Are three consecutive fours worth the same? No way! Every time a digit shifts exactly one space left, its value powers up by multiplying by 10! Let's write the rule: its value becomes 10 times as much! Say it: '10 times as much!'"
20-30 MIN
Stage 3: Guided Practice (Co-Op Challenges)
Do: Show Slide 5 and Slide 6. Walk around and monitor student notes.
Say: "Let's co-op. Look at 77,000. The 7 on the left is one place left of the thousands 7. That means its value is 10 times as much! Write that down on your notes under Task A and complete Task B."
30-45 MIN
Stage 4: Partner Talk & Exit Ticket Log Out
Do: Show Slide 7. Distribute the Exit Ticket.
Say: "A teammate says the 6 in 6,000 and 600 are the same because they are both sixes. Debate with your partner! Explain how shifting left changes the value system. Then complete your Exit Ticket."
Misconception Shield
The "+10" Addition Trap:
Students think shifting left adds 10 (e.g., 500 is "10 more" than 50).
Verbatim Intervention:
Say: "Does 50 + 10 equal 500? No, that's 60. We must multiply by 10 to shift left!"
High-Leverage Questions
1. "Why does shifting left make a value bigger?"
2. "How do we prove 7,000 is 10 times 700 with equations?"
3. "What if we shifted two places left?" (Extension)

1 The Target Number Challenge
Look at the target number: 5,500
What is the value of the 5 in the hundreds place?
What is the value of the 5 in the thousands place?
2 Fill in the Code-Breaker Comparison Blanks
The value of the 5 in the thousands place is times as much as the value of the 5 in the hundreds place
because the thousands place is exactly place to the of the hundreds place.
3 Explain Your Thinking (Cracking the Code)
Your classmate claims: "The number 3,000 has a value that is exactly 10 times as much as 300." Are they correct? Explain how you know using what you learned about moving digits on the chart.
