Ask:
What do you call this small cube? It is a unit.
What number is represented by one unit? It represents one.
How about this pile of 10 cubes? It is a long.
What number is represented by one long? It represents 10.
1 long is made up of 10 units.
How about this group of 10 longs? It is a flat.
What number is represented by one flat? It represents 100.
1 flat is made up of 10 longs or 100 units.
or
How about this group of 10 flats? It is a block.
What number is represented by one block? It represents 1000.
1 block is made up of 10 flats or 100 longs or 1000 units.
How many blocks do you see? There is one block. (Write 1 in the box under the blocks column.)
What does one block represent? It represents 1 000.
How many flats do you see? There is zero or none. (Write 0 in the box under the flats column.)
What does this mean? There are no or zero hundreds.
How many longs do you see? There is zero or none. (Write 0 in the box under the longs column.)
What does this mean? There are no or zero tens.
How many units do you see? There is one unit. (Write 1 in the box under the unit.)
What does one unit represent? It represents one.
(After answering questions, the chart should look like this:
In writing a 4-digit number based on the models, you start from left to right.
What number is represented by one block and one unit? The number is 1 001.
Why? The leftmost digit 1 means there is one thousand (represented by one block).
The next digit 0 means there are no or zero hundreds. The next digit 0 means there
are no or zero tens. The rightmost digit 1 (represented by one unit) means there is
one ones. Thus, the number is 1 001.
Do the same process with the 2nd to 5th rows.
After answering the illustrations, the chart should look like this:
Reading and Writing Numbers up to 10 000 in Words and Numerals
How do we write numbers in words?

s
1 235 one thousand
What does the leftmost digit 1 mean? It means one thousand.
How did we represent 1 000? We used a block to represent 1 000.
A block is made up of 1 000 units.
Write the words “one thousand” in the second column, same row.

s
1 235 one thousand two hundred
What is the next digit? It is two.
What does it mean? There are two one hundred or two hundreds.
Write the words “two hundred” after “one thousand.”

s
1 235 one thousand two hundred thirty
What is the next digit? It is three.
What does it mean? There are three tens or thirty.
Write the word “thirty” after “two hundred.”

s
1 235 one thousand two hundred thirty-five
What is the next digit? It is five.
What does it mean? There are five ones or five.
Write the word “five” after “thirty.”
1 235 is written in words as “one thousand two hundred thirty-five.”
There is a hyphen between thirty and five.
What if one digit is zero? How do we write the number in words?

s
1 460 One thousand
What does the leftmost digit 1 mean? It means one thousand.
Write the words “one thousand” in the second column, same row.

s
1 460 One thousand four hundred
What is the next digit? It is four.
What does it mean? There are four one hundred or four hundreds.
Write the words “four hundred” after “one thousand.”

s
1 460 One thousand four hundred sixty
What is the next digit? It is six.
What does it mean? There are six tens or sixty.
Write the word “sixty” after “four hundred.”

s
1 460 One thousand four hundred sixty
What is the next digit? It is zero.
What does it mean? There are no or zero ones.
Since there are no or zero ones, we do not have to write anything.
So, 1 460 is written in words as “one thousand four hundred sixty.”
What if the number has two zeros. How do we write the number in words?
