Free Place Value Concept Printables
To help you Tutor your child.

Place Value is a vital concept for your child to fully understand. The foundation you give them here, will determine their strength in everything from multiple digit addition to decimals and percentages. Be sure to work with your K-6 student until they fully grasp the concept.

Use this information to help you tutor

On a large A4 sheet of paper write the numbers 1 to 5 large enough to fill the page. ALternatively, you can print this pre-made Place Value Numbers sheet. While you are printing - also print this worksheet.

Cut out all the numbers.

Now have your child chose three number - they can be any of the five available ones. Ask them to place them in the box's on the worksheet and also, write the number in one of the small box's on the bottom of the page.

Now it's time to have your kid place the same numbers in the box's again, but in a different order, and again, write the new number in the small box's at the bottom of the page. Have them continue to do this exercise until they have created all the possible three digit numbers. (If you only use three different digits, then there are six numbers they can create!)

Now it's time to observe and Ask Questions.

• How many different numbers did you create?
• How did you get six different numbers?
• Why is (for example) 321 bigger than 123?
