Lesson Plan: Place Value with Three Digits

Subject: Mathematics

Grade: 2

Duration: 30 minutes


Lesson Objectives

By the end of this lesson, students will be able to:


Materials Needed


Introduction (5 minutes)

  1. Begin the lesson by asking students if they remember what place value means.
  2. Introduce the concept of three-digit numbers and explain the terms hundreds, tens, and ones.
  3. Draw a large place value chart on the whiteboard and label the columns as Hundreds, Tens, and Ones.

Direct Instruction (10 minutes)

  1. Define Three-Digit Numbers: Explain that any number from 100 to 999 is a three-digit number.
  2. Break Down the Numbers:
    • Use the number 245 as an example:
      • Hundreds: 2 (which equals 200)
      • Tens: 4 (which equals 40)
      • Ones: 5 (which equals 5)
  3. Use base ten blocks to visually demonstrate the breakdown of the number into hundreds, tens, and ones.
  4. Engage the students by asking them to identify the place value of digits in different three-digit numbers.

Guided Practice (10 minutes)

  1. Present several three-digit numbers, such as 318, 472, and 605, on the whiteboard.
  2. Ask students to work in pairs to determine the place value of each digit in the numbers provided.
  3. Monitor student work and provide feedback as needed.

Independent Practice (3 minutes)

  1. Hand out worksheets that require students to:

    • Identify the place value of individual digits in several three-digit numbers.
    • Draw base ten blocks to represent the numbers given.
  2. Allow students to work independently, circulating to check for understanding.


Conclusion (2 minutes)

  1. Review key concepts by asking students to share their answers from the independent practice.
  2. Reinforce the importance of understanding place value in everyday life, such as when using money or telling time.

Homework Assignment

Instructions: Complete the following tasks on your homework sheet.

  1. Write the place value for each digit in the following numbers:
    a. 532
    b. 416
    c. 289

  2. Draw base ten blocks for each of the following numbers:
    a. 374
    b. 200
    c. 148


Homework Answers

  1. Place Value:
    a. 532

    • 5 = 500 (hundreds)
    • 3 = 30 (tens)
    • 2 = 2 (ones)
      b. 416
    • 4 = 400 (hundreds)
    • 1 = 10 (tens)
    • 6 = 6 (ones)
      c. 289
    • 2 = 200 (hundreds)
    • 8 = 80 (tens)
    • 9 = 9 (ones)
  2. Drawings of Base Ten Blocks:
    a. 374

    • 3 hundreds blocks, 7 ten blocks, 4 one blocks
      b. 200
    • 2 hundreds blocks, 0 ten blocks, 0 one blocks
      c. 148
    • 1 hundreds block, 4 ten blocks, 8 one blocks

This lesson plan utilizes engaging teaching methods to help Grade 2 students grasp the concept of place value in three-digit numbers effectively.
