About this resource
Description
Knowing where a digit sits in a number is the heart of place value. This place value location worksheet helps second graders find the hundreds, tens, and ones places in three-digit numbers and see that each spot gives a digit its own value.
On this place value location worksheet, children read a place name on each number card and circle the digit that sits in that place. Next, they solve four mystery numbers by reading three place clues and writing the number the clues build. Use it as independent practice, a math center, or a quick check after a lesson on hundreds, tens, and ones.
What’s Included
- Part A: six number cards where students circle the digit in the named place
- Part B: four mystery number cards with hundreds, tens, and ones clues
- Numbers with a zero in different places for careful thinking
- A complete answer key on page two
Why This Worksheet Helps Kids
- It builds a strong picture of the three places in a three-digit number.
- It asks students to work in both directions, from a number to its places and from places back to a number.
- The mystery clues come out of order, so students must read each place carefully instead of copying digits left to right.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
This 2nd grade place value worksheet pairs well with base-ten blocks. Have students build each mystery number with flats, rods, and cubes before they write it. For an extra challenge, ask children to write their own three clues for a partner to solve, or to name the value of each circled digit. You can also read a number aloud and let children point to the digit in the place you call out.
