🎯 Skills Covered

Children will practise:

• Partitioning two-digit numbers into tens and ones
• Partitioning three-digit numbers into hundreds, tens and ones
• Partitioning four-digit numbers into thousands, hundreds, tens and ones
• Recognising the value of each digit in a number

🇦🇺 Australian Curriculum and NAPLAN Support

This resource supports Year 3 place-value learning and helps children build the number knowledge required for NAPLAN-style numeracy questions. It provides valuable practice in recognising digit values, partitioning numbers and working confidently with expanded notation.

🇬🇧 National Curriculum and SATs Preparation

The worksheets also support place-value objectives within the English National Curriculum. Although formal Key Stage 2 SATs take place later in primary school, these activities help establish the secure number and place-value foundations children will need for future SATs-style arithmetic and reasoning questions.

💡 Flexible Classroom Use

Use the worksheets in sequence, assign different sheets according to student readiness or select individual pages for targeted revision. The worked example on each page helps children begin independently, while the included answer sheets make marking quick and straightforward.

The clean, child-friendly fish theme keeps the activity engaging without distracting from the mathematics.
