Penguin Place Value

Help penguins find their icebergs in this charming math worksheet! Each penguin has a value written in numerals. Students will need to match the penguin’s number to its value in tens and ones, then to the corresponding set of base-10 blocks. This worksheet includes only two-digit numbers. 

Use this worksheet to give first graders fun, wintery practice with an important math skill. Learners will work on recognizing place value by matching numbers to their expanded forms and to base-10 blocks. The visual representations can help students better understand the meaning of place value, preparing them to work on trickier concepts in the future, such as operations with two-digit numbers and regrouping tens and ones.
