Turn place value review into a celebration with this three-digit number Balloon Pop game! Place the included review cards inside balloons for students to pop and solve. The cards can also be used without balloons as task cards during math centers, partner work, or small-group instruction.

The cards include a mix of place value and number sense skills to help students review three-digit numbers in a variety of ways.

Students will practice skills such as:

• Ordering three-digit numbers
• Comparing numbers
• Identifying hundreds, tens, and ones
• Determining the value of a digit
• Representing numbers with base-ten blocks
• Making groups of tens and hundreds
• Counting forward from a given number
• Applying place value understanding

This activity is designed for second or third grade and works well as an end-of-unit review, whole-group game, or classroom number celebration.
