Naming Places

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is designed to assist students in learning place values for four-digit numbers. It features a column of four-digit numbers on the left side and a corresponding set of empty boxes aligned into columns labeled ‘Thousands’, ‘Hundreds’, ‘Tens’, and ‘Ones’ on the right side. The students’ task is to analyze each number and allocate the value of its individual digits into the appropriate place value columns. The layout provides a clear and organized way for students to practice the decomposition of numbers into their place value components.

The worksheet is teaching students how to identify and separate the thousands, hundreds, tens, and ones in four-digit numbers. By filling in the boxes with the correct place values, students reinforce their understanding of how numbers are built within the base-ten system. This knowledge is fundamental for performing mathematical operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Mastery of place value is also essential for understanding more advanced concepts such as decimal numbers and the properties of numbers in different base systems.
