Expand Those 4-Digit Numbers

Expanding a four-digit number involves breaking it down into its constituent place values. Each digit in a four-digit number represents a specific place value: thousands, hundreds, tens, and ones. This worksheet has been created by a teacher for independent practice to help students practice reading and writing numbers up to 2,000 using expanded form.
