2nd grade math · Unit 7: Place value to 1,000

Numbers to 1,000 three ways

What this lesson shows

365 as 3 flats, 6 rods, and 5 units: 300 + 60 + 5, three hundred sixty-five.

The worked example

The lesson works this one step by step: 365. Then your kid tries one like it on paper.

The steps

  1. Each digit has a place
  2. Flats, rods, and cubes
  3. Expanded form adds the parts
  4. Word form says it

Helping at home

Name each digit by its place: hundreds, tens, ones. Draw a flat for each hundred, a rod for each ten, a cube for each one. Then add what each digit is worth, and write the number in words.

If your kid gets stuck

Hundreds, tens, then ones.
