Özet
In this study, the level of understanding place value of the fourth-grade students in the primary school was investigated in terms of counting, representing, comparing, naming, renaming and calculating. A mixed model was used in the research. The study group consisted of 117 students in the fourth-grade in the Haymana district of Ankara. The "Place Concept in Natural Numbers Test" developed for research as a data collection tool was used. The KR-20, reliability of the test was 91,6. According to the findings of the study; it is determined that students counting dimensions countback sub-dimension, naming dimensions read and write sub- dimension, rename sub dimensions in renaming a given expression in a conventional manner, sorting from small to large dimension, in compiling and multiplication dimension' sub-dimensions, reach the 0.75 and higher level of learning. As a result of the content analysis for each dimension of the place value; students made more mistakes unconventional rename dimensions, calculating dimension division, comparing finding the number between two numbers. According to the results of the tetrachoric correlation, it was concluded that the prerequisite relations were strong between the behaviours related to all dimensions discussed in the study.
