Long clue lists and translated text continue onto additional pages. Every download includes all the generated questions.

Learning objective

What this activity builds

Apply place-value reasoning across several representations and response types in one mixed review.

Worked example

Using the digits 4, 0, 2 and 4 exactly once, make the smallest four-digit number.

2,044

Put the smallest nonzero digit first. Place zero next and arrange the remaining digits from smallest to largest. Both copies of 4 must be kept.

Teaching notes

Make the practice count

  • Ones are always included. Select the other places that are ready for review; leaving every box empty creates an introductory whole-number review.
  • The highest selected whole place controls the largest context. Reordering and comparison use at least two-digit numbers so that the task stays meaningful.
  • Place-name questions target selected whole places and underline a specific digit. Repeated copies of that digit elsewhere do not change the target.
  • Selected fractional places are covered in digit-lookup questions. Tenths, hundredths and thousandths also allow fractional-unit word-name questions; ten-thousandths use digit lookup.
  • Each sheet includes all five question families. These are mathematical review prompts, not story-based word problems.
  • The separate key follows the same question order and page breaks. Ask learners to explain why an answer is a digit, a number or a place name.
