Students practice using knowledge of ordinal numbers to solve the mystery message. They are also practicing locating the position of a letter from the top and from the bottom. Though we teach ordinal numbers in second grade, this can also be a useful review for higher grade levels.

Students will use a 0-9 number generator or a 0-9 (or 1-9) spinner in order to build two, three, and four-digit numbers. Then, they will round each number to the nearest ten, hundred, and thousand, when applicable.
Students practice sorting ordinal numbers into two groups -- word form and ordinal number form.
Students also match the word form with the ordinal number and place them in order on a sentence strip. It's a great quick check to see if your students have an understanding of ordinal numbers and their positions.
Copy a blank game board so students can fill in the board and play Ordinal BINGO.
Materials:
- scissors
- glue
- counters (for BINGO)
- pencil
- sentence strip (register tape works also)
