Place Value: Year Four

This series of interactive excel sheets is aimed at Year Four students and explores place value. New questions can be generated each time by the click of a button. To check the answers click on the smiley face.

The first sheet generates a series of eight numbers. Students have to match the number in words with the equivalent value in digits.

The following sheet explores separating four-digit numbers into their component thousands, hundreds, tens and units. In the next sheet the values have been jumbled up; students have to rearrange the correct values in each of the columns.

In the fourth sheet students are given five digits and have to arrange them to make the biggest and smallest numbers possible.

In the next sheet students are given five values and have to place them in order from smallest to largest.

The sixth sheet looks at counting on in ones, tens, hundreds or thousands from any starting number. In the following sheet students have to count backwards down to a target number.

The seventh sheet asks how many ones, tens, hundreds or thousands are needed to exceed a target number. Students can predict the answer before counting up.

In the eighth sheet students have to state what addition or subtraction has been performed to get from one number to another. Select the + or - symbol and then choose from one of four possible answers.

The ninth sheet contains a 6 by 6 multiplication grid. Reveal either the values to be multiplied or the answers within the table to enable students to then work out the values in each of the blank squares.

The final sheet generates 15 division questions to be matched up with a bank of answers displayed at the bottom of the sheet.
