About this resource

What's inside this resource

Twelve base-ten block diagrams (six per practice page, across two practice pages) ask students to count the hundreds flats, tens rods, and ones cubes shown in each picture, write the count in the blanks provided, and combine them to reveal a 'secret' three-digit number, such as 6 hundreds, 5 tens, and 4 ones making 654. Two matching answer-key pages follow the two practice pages, each showing every blank filled in and the secret number solved. All four pages carry a HaveFunTeaching.com credit line, and the worksheet uses the same six-diagram layout throughout rather than varying the format from page to page.

Teaching tips & learning objectives

Learning objectives

  • Count groups of base-ten blocks (hundreds flats, tens rods, ones cubes) shown in a diagram
  • Represent a quantity of blocks as a three-digit number in expanded hundreds/tens/ones form
  • Combine hundreds, tens, and ones counts into a single three-digit number

Teaching tips

  • Model the first item on each page as a class before independent work, since the block diagrams rely on visual counting that some students may rush through
  • Use the 'secret number' framing to turn the worksheet into a quick reveal-and-check activity rather than a plain counting drill
  • Pair this with physical base-ten blocks for students who need to manipulate concrete objects before working from the printed diagrams

Skills covered

  • Base-ten representation — students count hundreds flats, tens rods, and ones cubes in each diagram.
  • Place-value notation — students record separate hundreds, tens, and ones quantities in labeled blanks.
  • Three-digit number composition — students combine the counted values to reveal each “secret number.”
  • Answer checking — the included answer-key page shows the completed place-value counts and numbers.
