About this resource

Description

Our using base 10 numerals worksheet helps second graders see how one three-digit number can be shown in several ways. Students count hundreds flats, tens rods, and ones cubes, then write the same number as a numeral, in expanded form, and as a number name. Moving between these forms builds a strong sense of place value and prepares children for adding and subtracting larger numbers.

Using This Worksheet

Each of the three cards shows a group of base ten blocks. Children count the flats, rods, and cubes, write the numeral in the box, break the number into hundreds, tens, and ones in the expanded form boxes, and then write the number name in words on the line. The page works well as independent practice, a math center task, homework, or a quick check after a place value lesson. Because every card asks for all three forms, this using base 10 numerals worksheet also shows you at a glance which form each child still finds tricky.

What’s Included

  • One worksheet with three base ten block cards
  • Numeral, expanded form, and number name practice for every card
  • A complete answer key

Why Kids Benefit

First, counting real block pictures connects each digit to the amount it stands for. Second, writing expanded form shows that the 4 in 243 means 40, not 4. Third, spelling out number names strengthens reading and writing of math words, a key second grade base ten worksheet skill.

Ideas for Teachers and Parents

Build each number with real base ten blocks before students write, or have children create their own number and trade papers with a partner. At home, parents can call out a number and ask their child to draw it with quick sketches of flats, rods, and cubes.
