About this worksheet
Second grade place value asks children to see a number as hundreds, tens, and ones instead of a string of digits to read from left to right. That shift matters because every later addition and subtraction method depends on trading between places. Children often read a three-digit number correctly but still think the digit six always means six, even when it sits in the tens place and means sixty. This worksheet keeps the focus on the structure of three-digit numbers. Some questions use base-ten blocks so students connect the drawing to the written form, while others ask for expanded form, word form, or the value of a digit. Watch for answers that name the digit instead of its place value.
What your child will learn
Read three-digit numbers as hundreds, tens, and ones
Match base-ten blocks to expanded form
Write number words for three-digit values
Identify the value of a digit by its place
Worked example
A model with four hundreds, three tens, and two ones shows four hundred thirty-two. The three is worth three tens, or thirty.
Common mistake
Naming the digit only, such as saying the 6 in 264 means six instead of six tens.
Helpful hint
Read the hundreds first, then the tens, then the ones.
