Common misconception
Pupils may not see that larger numbers can be composed in different ways.
Use place value charts to show pupils how numbers can be composed in different ways (e.g. 1700 = 17 hundreds, 170 tens or 1700 ones). Make clear links to how we can read the number and how this helps us to describe what it is composed of.
