2. Arrange posters on a wall in order from millions to thousandths for quick reference.
3. Use in lessons as a visual scaffold when teaching place value concepts.
4. Involve students by having them build their own numbers using the display.
5. Encourage regular reference during mental maths, number talks, or independent work.
6. Pair with base ten blocks or number expanders to create hands-on links between visual and concrete representations.

Ideas for Classroom Use:

• 💡 Set up a number of the day activity using the posters to build and discuss a new number daily.
• 💡 Use as a reference station during maths rotations or group work.
• 💡 Combine with digit cards for an interactive build-a-number challenge.
• 💡 Encourage students to bring their own numbers from home or the world around them (e.g. prices, populations).
• 💡 Incorporate the posters into your classroom decor to blend learning with vibrant, meaningful design.

Top Teacher Tips:

• 💛 Print on A3 for better visibility from across the room.
