Common mistakes

What learners typically get wrong, and how to fix it.

  • Gives the digit instead of its value (says 3 instead of 300).

    Correction: Ask: how many hundreds is that? Then write it as a full number.

  • Forgets zero as a placeholder (writes 4,050 as 45).

    Correction: Use a place-value chart and fill every empty column with 0.

Teacher tips

  • · Build numbers with base-ten blocks before writing them.

Parent tips

  • · Read big numbers on receipts and ask what each digit is worth.

Real-life applications

  • · Reading prices, house numbers and big numbers in the news.
