How to teach it

Have the student build the number in a chart before writing its name. For U.S. whole-number notation, model names such as three hundred five.

Example to work through together

Use the model below as you explain the example. Have your student point to the quantities as you discuss them.

346 ↔ three hundred forty-six
300 + 40 + 6

The words describe the same quantity as the digits. Forty-six means four tens and six ones, not forty and sixty.

Ask your student

Which place is empty even though we do not say zero in the name?

If your student needs help

If the student writes 35 for three hundred five, compare the spoken hundreds with the place-value chart.

Choosing and using the worksheet

Each sheet reuses four questions with four distinct numbers from 100 through 999: two ask for digits and two ask for words. Particular zero digits or teen numbers are not guaranteed in every set.

Make a practice set

Select the worksheet, answer key, or both. When both are selected, the answer key prints after the questions. Keep it separate if you want your student to work independently.

Print materials

After your student finishes

Read one answer back in the other form and explain what every digit represents.
