About this resource
The worksheet asks pupils to decompose numbers from standard form into sums of place values. Both large whole numbers and decimals through thousandths appear, so pupils attend to positions on each side of the decimal point. Ask them to read a number aloud before expanding it, then compare the sum with the original value.
Curriculum reference — England: Whole-number range also needs to be checked before assigning an overall level. Thousandths place-value work supports England Year5; whole-number components are separately checked. OCR confirms511506392; decimal-only Grade6 reference must not label the whole worksheet. The nine-digit numbers make KS3 any-size place value the defensible overall connection. Selected skills only; reference stage is not an overall reading age, complete curriculum coverage, or an automatic recommendation for every learner.
