About this resource

Description

Every digit in a number has a value that depends on its place, and the Fly Place Value Worksheet gives second graders twelve focused problems to practice that big idea. On this fly place value worksheet, each three-digit number has one digit with a line under it, and students write what that digit is worth. A 4 in the tens place is worth 40, while an 8 in the hundreds place is worth 800. Knowing the value of each digit is the heart of 2.NBT.A.1, and it prepares children for regrouping, rounding, and adding larger numbers.

Part A asks students to look at a number and name the value of the underlined digit, with the ones, tens, and hundreds places all mixed together so children must read each number carefully. Part B reverses the job: students read an amount written in hundreds, tens, and ones, then write the whole number in the box. One item has zero ones and another has zero tens, so the placeholder zero gets practice in two places. The page works well for independent practice, a small group, a math center, or homework, and a full answer key on page two makes checking quick.

What’s Included

  • One printable 2nd Grade place value worksheet in PDF format
  • Part A: eight three-digit numbers, each with one underlined digit to value
  • Part B: four numbers to build from hundreds, tens, and ones
  • Zero placeholders in both the ones place and the tens place
  • A complete answer key on page two

Three Reasons This Helps Kids

  • It teaches children that a digit and its value are not the same thing, which clears up a very common mix-up.
  • Working in both directions, from number to value and from parts to number, builds real understanding instead of a memorized pattern.
  • Clean answer boxes keep work neat and make the page easy to check.

Ideas for Teachers and Parents

Warm up with a quick game of place value flyers: write a three-digit number on a paper airplane, fly it across the room, and have the child who catches it say the value of one digit. Build a few of the numbers with base ten blocks before starting Part B. As an extension, ask students to write a number where the 6 is worth 600 and another where the 6 is worth 6, then explain the difference.
