Place value is an important concept for 2nd graders to master in order to develop a solid foundation in mathematics. Place value blocks are a hands-on tool that can help students visualize and understand the value of digits in a number. These worksheets are designed to provide practice in using place value blocks to represent numbers up to three digits.
Students will learn to identify the ones, tens, and hundreds places in a number and represent them using place value blocks. They will also practice reading and writing numbers in standard form, expanded form, and word form. These worksheets are a great way to reinforce place value concepts and build fluency in number sense.
Using Place Value Blocks
Place value blocks are a set of manipulatives that represent the different place values in a number. The ones block is represented by a single cube, the tens block by a rod of 10 cubes, and the hundreds block by a flat representing 100 cubes. Students can physically manipulate these blocks to build numbers and understand the concept of place value.
These worksheets provide exercises that require students to build numbers using place value blocks, compare numbers using greater than and less than symbols, and order numbers from least to greatest. By using these worksheets, students can develop a deeper understanding of place value and strengthen their number sense skills.
