Three Digit Place Value Freebie!

Hi, Teaching Friends!

Wow! July is flying by, and many of you are already getting ready to head back to your classrooms!

Those first weeks of school are rough, on students and teachers, too. While you're building classroom routines, setting expectations, and building your classroom community, it's also a great time for reviewing the academic basics.

On that note, here's a three-digit number place value freebie that may help you get some of those little brains back in gear.



Your students will play three partner activities using 30 three-digit number cards, and you'll only have one page to print! Use it now, or save it for an early finishers activity to use any time during the year!



If you're on the hunt for more activities for three-digit numbers for late second grade through fourth grade, here are two more resources you'll like! Click on either picture to learn more about these place value riddle sets.

Sequence of Numbers from One to 50

Good Morning, Teaching Friends!

As we teach our students to count the higher numbers (yes, Teachers of Older Grades, in kindergarten 50 is still a high number to some of our students!), it's challenging for some kids to start at any number and count on. Just like rote sing-songy recitation of the alphabet doesn't demonstrate complete enough knowledge of it, being able to count to 100 doesn't ensure the ability to know "what comes after 37?  42?"... and that doesn't even take into account the tricky decade changes!


One easy way to practice is to use number cards. Put the cards in order and then separate them into groups of 10-15 cards. Distribute the card sets to partners or individuals and have them put them in order in a line. When they're finished, have your students do a mini-walk from one set to the next, saying the numbers aloud to check them and of course to practice! It's also fun to make big number cards, have several students each hold one, stand them in an out-of-sequence line, and call on other students to move their classmates back into correct order.


I'm working right now on developing a new game for practicing consecutive numbers. In the meantime, here's a quick little freebie that combines a puzzle with a more traditional worksheet format. The cute little pups on the page are from A Sketchy Guy at TPT.
