Practice identifying three-digit numbers with this playful Pin the Bow Tie on the Clown activity! Students read a number clue, determine which three-digit number it describes, and place the matching bow tie on the clown.

The clues encourage students to use place value, number relationships, and comparison skills to identify each number.

Students will practice:

• Identifying three-digit numbers from clues
• Understanding hundreds, tens, and ones
• Comparing three-digit numbers
• Recognizing numbers greater than or less than a given number
• Connecting place value descriptions to standard form
• Using number sense to solve problems

Designed for second and third grade, this activity can be used for whole-group practice, partner work, math centers, or small-group place value review.
