Roll, Write, Expand & Draw - 4-Digit Number Worksheet
This worksheet challenges students to roll 4 dice to create a 4-digit number, then represent it in five distinct forms. A worked example is included to model the task structure, followed by 9 additional spaces for students to practise.
For each number, students must:
- Write it in numerals
- Spell it out in words
- Break it into place value parts
- Show the expanded form
- Draw a visual representation (e.g. MAB blocks or base ten diagrams)
Perfect for consolidating place value understanding and expanding number flexibility in a structured and engaging way.
Learning goals
- We are learning to partition, rearrange and regroup numbers to 10 000 using place value groupings.
- We are learning to investigate equivalent fractions, e.g. halves, quarters and eighths or thirds and sixths.
- We are learning to add and subtract two-and three-digit numbers using place value groupings.
- We are learning to find equivalent representations of fractions and make connections between fractions and decimals, e.g. ¼ of 1 metre = .25m or 25cm.
