Source, access and review notes
Public Illustrative Mathematics task page. The .html address responds HTTP 308 to this URL. An anonymous GET of this URL on 2026-11-12 returned HTTP 200 with no login or payment prompt. Where a teacher solution is present, it is on the same page as the student task; this check did not find a separate locked student view. An adult can use the student view section and should not read a solution aloud. Advertising was not observed in the fetched HTML text; that is not a browser, device, or ad-free guarantee. This is a paper or discussion task, not an automatically marked interactive game. Opening the link does not save practice or assess mastery. Diagrams on the page use missing or filename-only alt text, so they are not an accessible image equivalent. Accessibility still depends on an adult describing the picture.

Check understanding
- Read a three-digit numeral aloud correctly
- Write a three-digit number in words (e.g. 'three hundred and forty-two')
- Write a number in expanded form (e.g. 600 + 30 + 7)
“Can your child read and write numbers up to 1,000 — both as numerals and in words — like reading '642' as 'six hundred and forty-two'?”
