    silver:
    This is not correct,the correct order is 111,223,436
    gold:
    Dora is correct because there is no 10s in the place value chart.
    Platinum:
    no because you can make a higher number by switching the place values.

    1. Mrs Begum

    It is not correct because 111 is the smaller than 223 and 436.
    Gold
    Dora is correct because 607 but Jack was wrong because he thought that the answer was 678.
    Platinum
    I agree with the alien because it is 811.

    1. Miss Jephcott

      Have a look at Bronze again. Remember it’s asking for descending order.

    678,489,346,290,110 and 109.
    Silver
    111,223,436.
    Because it said from smallest to biggest so 111 is smaller than 223 this is smaller than 436.
    Gold
    I think Dora is correct because she said 607 Jack is roang because he thought that the ones were tens.

    ♤The first biggest number 436 and then it’s 223 then finally it’s 111.
    Gold
    ♡I agree with dora
    Because on the place value chart it has 6hundreds and 0 tens and 7 ones meaning the number is 607 and Dora has written that the answer 607 which is same on the place value meanwhile jack has written 670 but it’s not the correct answer as the place value chart its shows 607 so therefore I agree with Dora.

    It is wrong because 111 is the smaller than 223 and 436 .
    gold
    Dora is correct because the answer was 607 but Jack was wrong because he thought that the answer was 670 .

    1. Mrs Begum

      Good try Sumaya .
      Have look at the bronze challenge again , it asking you to put the numbers in descending order. (Largest to smallest) have

      Why do you think Jack was wrong, please explain your answer👍🏼

  11. Mustafa Z.

    Bronze:
    678,489,346,290,110,109.
    Silver:
    No,The answer is not correct. It should be like this 111,223,436
    Gold:
    I think Dora is correct because in the ones column I see seven ones and in the hundreds column I see 6 hundreds so The answer should be 607 .

  12. Aiza B.

    Bronze
    678,489,346,290,110 and 109.
    Sliver
    No it’s incorrect because smallest is 111and greatest is 436.
    Gold
    Dora is right because there is no tens in the value chart.
    Platinum
    It is incorrect because in the value chart 800 and 1 ten and 1 = 901 which is not a 3 digit number.

    1. Mrs Begum

      Great work Aiza 👍🏼. Remember to write your answers in full sentences please. For the platinum challenge what number would we have if we put all the 10 counters in the hundred column what number will we get?

  13. Aadam R.

    Completed bronze, silver, gold and platinum in homework book.

  14. Adrian O.

    Plantium:
    I don’t agree because in the place value grid it’s 811 but add 1 counter to the hundreds and one in the ten’s and it = 910.

  15. Max P.

    Bronze
    678 489 346 290 110 109.

    Silver
    It is not correct.
    First 436
    Second 223
    Smallest 111.

    Gold
    Dora is correct, it is 607. Because it’s not have any 10’s.

    Silver
    111 , 223 ,436
    It’s correct because 111 is the smallest and 436 is the greatest.
    Gold
    Dora is correct because the 100s column has
    600 and the 10s column has 0 and the 1s
    column has 7 but jack is uncorrect.

    Bronze
    678, 489, 346, 290, 110 and then 109.
    Silver
    The answer is not correct.
    The smallest number is 111, then 223 and the greatest number is 436.
    Gold
    I think Dora is correct in saying 607 on the chart because there is no value in the 10’s column so the answer cannot be 670.
    Platinum
    I do not agree with the alien because I think all 10 counters should be in the 100’s column to get the largest 3 digit number of 1000.

    1. Mrs Begum

      Great work Javishan . You have answered the question beautifully.👍🏼

  19. Hamza M.

    Bronze:
    678, 489, 346, 290, 110, 109
    Silver:
    No, because the 436 should be at the end and 223 should be 2nd and 111 should be first- 111, 223, 436.
    Gold:
    Dora is correct because Jack swapped the ones and the tens.

    1. Mrs Begum

      Great work Hamza 👍🏼. I think you should have a go at the platinum challenge. I know you can do it 😊

    Silver
    The numbers are not smallest to largest because the middle number is at the stars, the smallest number is at the end and the largest number is in the middle.
    Gold
    I agree with Dora because they are six hundreds and 7 ones but they are no tens so the number can’t be 670.
    Platinum
    I disagree with Captain Conjucter because there is only 1 one and 1 one can’t make a 3 digit number.

  21. Toleen S.

    Bronze 678,489,346,290,110 and 109.
    Silver No because the least number is 111 223 then 436.
    Gold Dora is correct because there are 7 100s in hundreds coloumn,0 tens in tens column and 7 ones in ones coloumn.However Jak said there are 6 hundreds 7 tens and 0 ones.
    Platinum I do not agree because 910 is the biggest number you can make.

  22. Hammaad H.

    no. the numbers are not in order it showing 223,436,111 smallest to greatest 111,223.436

    ___________________________________________________________
    Silver:
    They put 223 as the smallest instead of 111.
    __________________________________________________________
    Gold:
    Dora is right as it is 607. This is because there are no values in the tens column. Meaning the tens value is 0. Not 7.
    __________________________________________________________
    Platinum:
    He is wrong as the highest you can make is 910 not 811.

    1. Mrs Begum

      Well done 👍🏼. What should the number order be for silver?
      Platinum challenge what number would you make if all the counters are put in the 100 column? Can this be the greatest number using all the counters?

    I think Dora is correct because 100s and 1s column
    Platinum
    910 if we move 1s number to 10s to 100s it makes 910
