Place value chart
Draw a chart with periods grouped in threes (ones, thousands), with commas between them. Kids write each digit in its column and read the number period by period: "forty-five thousand, three hundred twelve." Seeing the periods makes even a six-digit number easy to read.
Why it works: children learn more from words and pictures together than from words alone (Mayer, 2009).
