About this resource
Description
Place value is the idea that a digit’s worth depends on where it sits inside a number, and it is the foundation of everything fourth graders do with large numbers. A student who can look at 508,263 and say that the 5 is worth 500,000 is ready to compare, round, add, and subtract multi-digit numbers with confidence. This Writing Place Value Worksheet gives your child focused practice naming the value of a circled digit, rewriting numbers in expanded form, and explaining place value reasoning in their own words.
This 4th grade place value worksheet is a single printable page with a matching answer key. Students begin with six numbers, each with one digit circled, and write the value that digit stands for — sweeping from the ones place all the way up to the hundred thousands. Next they rewrite three numbers in expanded form, breaking each one apart place by place. The page finishes with a short word problem in which a character misreads a digit’s place, and students explain the mistake and write the correct value. Use it as morning work, homework, a quick formative check, or a review station before a unit test.
What’s Included
- 1 print-ready PDF worksheet
- Answer key
- 10 place value activities: 6 name-the-value items, 3 expanded-form items, and 1 written explanation
There are three reasons this Writing Place Value Worksheet helps children learn. First, it climbs in difficulty instead of repeating one task: naming a digit’s value is easier than building expanded form, so students warm up before the harder work. Second, the six numbers cover every place from ones to hundred thousands, so no child can guess an answer from a pattern. Third, the last item asks for a written explanation, which turns a correct answer into evidence of real understanding and gives you something concrete to talk about when you conference with a student.
Away from the page, keep place value in front of children with quick games. Roll six number cubes and race to build the largest number you can, then take turns naming the value of one digit. Hunt for big numbers on cereal boxes, road signs, and sports scores, and ask which digit is worth the most. Give each child index cards labeled 1, 10, 100, 1,000, 10,000, and 100,000 and have them hold the cards in order to build a number together. A few minutes of number talk each day builds more number sense than a stack of drill pages.
