Five pictures of base ten blocks with flats added: a flat is a square of ten rods, one hundred. Children count the flats, rods and units, write how many hundreds, tens and ones, and then the three-digit number. Some pictures have no rods or no units, so the number has a zero in the middle or at the end: 2 flats and 8 units is 208, not 28.
