About this worksheet

Reading a large number means turning its name into digits, thousands first. On this sheet each line gives a number in words and your child writes the numeral on the line. The tricky part is the zero: in four hundred six thousand, seventy, the hundreds, tens and ones of the thousands group are not all named, so a zero has to hold their place.

What your child will learn

Write a number up to 999,999 from its name
Put a zero in every place the name skips
Use commas to group thousands

Common Core standard: 4.NBT.A.2

Worked example

Four hundred six thousand, seventy is 406,070: 406 thousands, then 070.

Common mistake

Leaving a zero out, so 406,070 becomes 46,70 or 4,670.

Helpful hint

Write the thousands group first, then a comma, then three digits for the rest, filling any gap with zeros.

Next skill: Add and Subtract Whole Numbers Earlier: Place Value to a Million
