Three pages of place value work for Year 4 maths. Pupils write the place and value of underlined digits in four-digit numbers, find 1,000 more and less, then compare and order numbers beyond 1,000. Answers are included for every question, and the whole sheet follows the England National Curriculum objectives for number and place value.
Number - number and place value
“Recognise the place value of each digit in a four-digit number (thousands, hundreds, tens, and ones)”
The Discovering Digits table works through this digit by digit.
Number - number and place value
“Find 1000 more or less than a given number”
The 1000 Machine table practises exactly this in both directions.
Number - number and place value
“Order and compare numbers beyond 1000”
The final section covers comparing with symbols and ordering full sets.
A table where pupils give the place and value of the underlined digit in numbers like 3,452 and 7,019.
Pupils complete columns showing 1,000 less and 1,000 more than numbers such as 2,450 and 5,199.
Pupils place <, > or = between pairs like 8,999 and 9,001, then order four measurements from smallest to largest.
Main activity
Run all three sections during a place value lesson, then mark together from the answers.
Quick starter
Use the Discovering Digits table on its own as a five-minute warm-up.
Small-group intervention
Work through the 1000 Machine with pupils who wobble when crossing a thousands boundary.
