Students click a shared link to access an external digital escape room activity (content not included in this PDF), and/or complete printed quizzes converting expanded-form sums (e.g. 40+8+0.5+0.02+0.003) into standard decimal numbers.
Practice building and comparing three-digit numbers using place value (hundreds, tens, ones) through a dice-rolling game.
Flip a two-color counter or coin to determine whether to place a zero or roll a 10-sided die for a digit, place each generated digit into a place-value column on a graphic organizer to try to build the biggest or smallest number, then as a class order the resulting numbers, round them, read them aloud, and/or convert…
Assemble a mini place-value book from cut/folded pages; draw playing cards to fill place-value spaces on a mat; copy the resulting number into the booklet and write it in words below (e.g. 28 = twenty-eight); trace number formation.
Play a class game show: select point-value questions on a grid, answer place-value questions, and track scores on a scoreboard.
Students fill in numbers 1-16 in random order on a 4x4 bingo board; the teacher reads out math clues (from the provided clue sets) one at a time, and students mark the answer number on their board, aiming for a bingo.
Each student holds a card stating a number and asking a place-value question about the next card (e.g., "I have 15,789. Who has 1 ten?"); students must identify the digit at the named place value on their own card and read their card aloud in turn, continuing the chain from START to END.
Student draws a set number of digit cards from a deck, writes the drawn digits into boxes, and then uses those digits to build numbers satisfying a list of prompts, e.g. 'the smallest number', 'a number less than 30,000', 'a number with a 3 in the hundreds place', 'a number that rounds to 90'.
Complete 9 different place-value activities: play teen-number games, decompose teen numbers into tens and ones (fill in 'I can make __. __ is [ ] group of 10 and [ ] ones'), build a teen number book, play a 'Cover It' board game finding called-out teen/larger numbers, roll dice and build numbers with base ten blocks…
Free download Roll one die for tens and another for ones, write the resulting two-digit number, and build it with base-ten blocks or connecting cubes. The recording sheet provides two rounds with separate Tens and Ones columns. Supply the dice and manipulatives for a small-group or station activity.
Solve place-value number riddles (tens/ones clues), complete a picture-drawing task, and find/color pictures matching a long 'ee' vowel sound.
Two dice-based partner games practicing converting between expanded form/standard form and between word form/standard form for 4-digit numbers.
Sort decimal-number cards under the matching place-value-name column header (or play a memory-matching game pairing number cards with name cards), then check work against the included answer key and optionally record results on a recording sheet; students can also create their own number/name pairs using blank cards.
This is a Banana Bunches: Greater Than/Less Than 50 Game. This is a great game to implement during your place value unit as an introduction or review for students. This is a 1 player game, so you can print game boards for all students that are playing or enough for a small group. You will print and cut the bunches of…
Draw number cards, place a chip on the drawn number on the hundreds chart, then state a related number that is one more, one less, ten more, or ten less (e.g., '42 is 10 more than 32'), placing an additional chip if correct; play individually or in teams, aiming to get chips in a row.
Complete sequential worksheet sections on place value/big numbers (reading/writing/comparing/rounding to 1,000,000), plus further sections (multiplication, long division, fractions, decimals, angles/geometry play included review games.
Students complete worksheet activities on place value/decimals, powers of ten, fraction operations, volume, and coordinate-plane graphing, supported by a teacher's guide and answer key, and play accompanying review games.
Students solve word problems comparing large populations, play a dice/coin game to build the smallest possible 7-digit decimal number, research and order country populations, compare Olympic luge race times to the thousandths place, and explain their reasoning about a large-number multiplication scenario in words and…
The Place Value of Decimals Digital Self-Checking Activity This is a resource created to assist educators in providing engaging, self-correcting practice activities on the significant concept of decimal place value. Primarily designed for students who find it tough to grasp place value concepts, this digital activity…
A large multi-day Guided Math unit teaching place value and number composition/decomposition up to 100,000 for 3rd grade, including teacher-facing methodology notes, learning-target tracking tools, and a day-by-day (Day 1 onward) sequence of lessons, station activities, games, and exit tickets.
Complete fill-in and computation activities: write missing numbers to 30 (with a bonus 100-110 extension), skip-count by 2s/5s/10s, extend number patterns, count ten-frames, and ( earns a 'Math Star' certificate at completion
Complete worksheets, real-life application problems (e.g., budgeting, tax/tip calculations, pool/wave-pool word problems), math games (dice games, matching games, board strategy games), station rotations, journal reflections, and short assessments/exit slips spanning place value through financial literacy.
Complete fill-in-the-blank prompts (what they'd eat/wish for/buy/do at 100); color and count '100 Candies'; complete a classroom scavenger hunt counting items toward 100; design a '100 Days of School' t-shirt; trace/write '100', 'one', 'hundred', 'one hundred'; solve a 100th Day maze; play the dice game 'Race to 100'.
Count pictures, trace numbers, find missing numbers, skip count by 2s/5s/10s, use ten-frames, decompose numbers into tens and ones, write expanded form, compare and order numbers, find ten more/less and one more/less, count to 120, write number words, and solve addition/subtraction problems within 20.
