Place Value - Numbers to 100,000 - Worksheet

This worksheet is designed to help Year 6 students master the concept of place value for numbers up to 100,000. The lesson's objective is to enable students to read, write, and understand the value of each digit in numbers as large as 100,000. To achieve this, differentiated worksheets and teaching slides are provided as resources. Key vocabulary includes terms such as 'thousands', 'hundreds', 'tens', 'ones', and 'ten thousand', all of which are crucial for understanding the place value system. Students will engage with activities that involve representing numbers on a place value grid as well as writing these numbers in both words and digits.

Throughout the lesson, students are encouraged to think critically about the place value system with questions like how adding 10, 100, or 1,000 affects the digits in a number and whether it's necessary to count forwards or backwards to identify a number's position in a sequence. The worksheet tasks vary in complexity to cater to different learning levels, from 'Working Towards' to 'Greater Depth'. Students will fill in place value charts, convert between numerals and words, and solve problems that involve changing numbers by adding or subtracting values. This hands-on approach reinforces their understanding of place value and prepares them for more advanced numerical operations.
