About this worksheet

Base-ten blocks make place value something a child can see. A flat square stands for one hundred, a long rod for ten, and a small cube for one. Second graders count the blocks in each group and put the three counts together into one three-digit number. This worksheet shows six sets of blocks, and your child writes the number the blocks show.

Because the picture is the only clue, the page is also practice at seeing 3 hundreds, 4 tens and 2 ones as 342. Count the flats first, then the rods, then the cubes. Say each count out loud, for example 300, 40, 2, and write the number the three parts make. An empty group is worth zero, so the zero goes in that place.

What your child will learn

  • Count hundreds, tens and ones in a picture
  • Write the three-digit number the blocks show
  • Use zero as a placeholder when a group is empty

Common Core standard: 2.NBT.A.1

Worked example

Common mistake

Helpful hint

A flat is 100, a rod is 10, a cube is 1.
