A five-part place value sheet with four-digit numbers: write numbers in expanded form (4,027 = 4,000 + 20 + 7), turn expanded form back into standard form, name the value of a digit, round, and compare with <, > or =. Middle zeros show up on purpose, because they trip up the most children.
Place value is the idea that a digit's value depends on its place, and nearly all multi-digit arithmetic rests on it. For younger children, start with base-ten blocks and the 1st grade and 2nd grade sheets. For bigger numbers, see 4th grade place value.

- Read numbers aloud by place: '4 thousands, 0 hundreds, 2 tens, 7 ones.'
