Frequently Asked Questions
A Gattegno chart is a visual tool that displays numbers in columns showing place value relationships, making it perfect for Year 6 students learning to multiply by powers of 10. When pupils place counters on the chart, they can physically see how digits move positions when multiplying by 10, 100, or 1000, which helps them understand why the decimal point appears to 'shift' rather than just memorising rules.
