Place value is all about understanding that a digit's value depends on its position in a number. In Grade 1, we focus on tens and ones. The ones place tells us how many individual units we have (like blocks), while the tens place tells us how many groups of ten we have. So, in the number 34, the '3' represents 3 tens (or 30), and the '4' represents 4 ones. Understanding this helps us add, subtract, and understand bigger numbers!
