Worksheet on large numbers grade-5 level

This resource focuses on the concept of place value, specifically teaching students how to identify and categorize large numbers ranging from thousands to billions. It begins with a reference chart outlining the different periods of place value, including billions, millions, thousands, and ones. Students engage in sorting exercises with a selection of numbers, learning to categorize them based on their highest period. The material also emphasizes the significance of zeros as placeholders within large numbers, illustrating how their position alters the value of surrounding digits. Through challenges, students deepen their understanding by comparing numbers that contain zeros and justifying the differences in their values based on place value principles.
