Add Place

place value · standard form to expanded form

To convert numbers from the standard to expanded form.

Add Place is a Grade 5 place value game for converting numbers from standard form to expanded form. Players draw number cards, break each number into thousands, hundreds, tens, and ones, and record the missing values on a shared board. Checking each other’s work makes the structure of the number visible instead of reducing expanded form to a copied notation exercise.

Use it for partner work when students need repeated practice decomposing whole numbers by place. Ask students to name the value of each digit before writing the expanded form so the notation stays connected to meaning. Generate the lesson for Add Place with a free Find a Math Game account.
