Naming Numbers

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is designed to help students practice constructing 5-digit numbers from written place value descriptions. It presents several number descriptions in a worded format, specifying the amount of tens of thousands, thousands, hundreds, tens, and ones in each number. Students are tasked with interpreting these descriptions and writing the corresponding 5-digit number on the provided lines. The worksheet features shell illustrations, adding a marine-themed touch to the learning activity.

The purpose of the worksheet is to teach students the concept of place value in the context of 5-digit numbers. It reinforces their ability to translate verbal descriptions of numbers into their numerical counterparts. This skill is crucial for understanding the structure of the base-ten number system and for developing number sense, particularly in recognizing and forming larger numbers. Completing this exercise will enhance students’ proficiency in identifying and writing numbers based on their place values.
