Each of the ten problems presents a three-digit number with one underlined digit. Your student writes the place value name, hundreds, tens, or ones, on the first blank, then writes the actual value of that digit on the second blank. A color-coded reference chart at the top of the page models the concept using 347 before your homeschooler works independently. This identifying place value of digits worksheet is aimed squarely at 3rd grade math and fits naturally into a number sense unit or as a standalone review.

The bonus question at the bottom flips the exercise: your student writes their own three-digit number, underlines one digit, and identifies its place value and value without any prompting. That open-ended step pushes the skill from recognition into application, which makes it useful for checking real understanding rather than pattern-matching. Whether you use it mid-unit or as a quick Friday check-in, the format supports independent practice once your student has reviewed the reference chart.
