A Million! How Much Is That?

Burnett, Peg Hampton

Arithmetic Teacher, v29 n1 p49-50 Sep 1981

Students were encouraged to explore the concept of one million. A short pretest revealed many pupils could not easily comprehend a million. Research and practical investigations began to find "a million things." All students were reported to come through these experiences with a much better understanding. (MP)
