Place Value Battleship

place value · Guessing digits by place value

Place Value Battleship is a Grade 2 partner game where students use place-value language to uncover an opponent’s hidden number. Each player creates a secret number, then takes turns asking questions such as whether a certain digit is in the tens or ones place. Every guess requires students to name a place precisely and use the response to narrow the possibilities.

Use it for partner review when students are learning tens, ones, and digit position in multi-digit numbers. The Battleship-style guessing gives place-value vocabulary a real purpose because vague questions will not reveal enough information.
