With nine cards printed with multiples of 1000 from 1000 to 9000; nine with multiples of 100 from 100 to 900; nine with multiples of 10 from 10 to 90 and ten with the numbers 0 to 9 it is easy to build up three or four-digit numbers by overlapping cards of different widths. e.g. the 5000 card + the 400 card + the 20 card + the 8 card can overlap to make 5428. This is a great way for children to understand place value and these types of cards have been popular in primary schools for many years, but are not easily available to parents. Another valuable resource is a times table square and we have just published two, one for times tables up to 10 x 10 and one for tables up to 12 x 12. Great for learning tables and seeing the many patterns that are within the square. Go to place value cards, tables squares and much more
