A hundreds chart lays out the numbers 1 to 100 in ten rows of ten. Because every column shares a ones digit and every row shares a tens digit, the chart makes number patterns visible: move down one box and the number grows by ten, move right and it grows by one. This set gives you the chart in four forms. The filled chart has every number printed with the tens column shaded, for counting and reference. The easy missing-numbers chart leaves about a third of the boxes empty. The hard version leaves two thirds empty, for children who already know the chart well. The blank chart is an empty 10 by 10 grid for writing 1 to 100 from memory or for coloring skip-counting patterns.
Used in that order, the four sheets take a child from reading the chart to reproducing it, which is the path from kindergarten counting to grade 2 place value.
What Students Will Practice
- Reading and writing numbers to 100 in order on the filled and blank charts
- Using the row and column of a box to work out a missing number (the number above is ten less, the number to the left is one less)
- Recognizing that the tens digit changes down a column and the ones digit changes along a row, helped by the shaded tens column
- Counting by 2s, 5s and 10s by coloring patterns on the blank chart
- Writing 1 to 100 independently, including the tricky crossings at 19 to 20, 29 to 30 and 99 to 100

How to Use These Worksheets
Print at 100% on A4 or US Letter paper. Laminating the filled chart or slipping it into a plastic sleeve turns it into a reusable reference.
- Filled chart. Keep this one visible while working on the others. Read a row aloud together, then a column, so your child hears that rows go up by one and columns go up by ten. The shaded tens column is a built-in prompt for counting by 10s.
- Missing numbers (easy). About a third of the boxes are empty and every blank has neighbors. Teach the two questions: “what number is to the left?” (add one) and “what number is above?” (add ten).
- Missing numbers (hard). Two thirds are empty, so children often have to reason from a number two or three boxes away. This sheet suits first and second grade.
- Blank chart. Use it two ways. Younger children write 1 to 100 in order as a counting check. Older children color every second box, every fifth box or every tenth box and describe the pattern they see.
- Play chart games. Cover a number with a coin and ask what is hidden. Ask your child to find a number that is ten more than 37 by moving one box down. Pick a start and count on by tens down the column.
Common Mistakes to Watch For
- Writing 30 after 29 but then 21, 22: The child has not yet understood that a new row means a new tens digit. Point to the column of tens on the right edge.
- Filling blanks by counting from 1 every time: Slow and error-prone. Model using the neighboring numbers instead.
- Reversing digits (41 for 14): Common in the teens row. Say the number as “one ten and four” while pointing to its row and column.
- Skipping boxes on the blank chart: Ask your child to touch each box as they say the number so speech, finger and pencil stay in step.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a hundreds chart used for?
Learning to count to 100, seeing place value patterns (tens down, ones across), practicing skip counting by coloring, and finding ten more or ten less than a number. It is used from kindergarten to second grade and often as a reference chart beyond that.
Which sheet should my child start with?
Start with the filled chart as a reference and read it together. Then use the easy missing-numbers sheet. Move to the hard version and the blank chart once your child can find a number's row and column without hesitating.
Does the chart start at 1 or 0?
These charts run from 1 to 100, which is the version used in most primary classrooms. A 0 to 99 chart is also common in some schools; the patterns work the same way.
How can I make the blank chart last?
Laminate it or place it in a clear plastic sleeve and use dry-erase markers. That way one sheet works for counting practice, skip-counting coloring and number games many times over.
More Counting and Number Practice
Children who are not yet counting to 100 will get more from the missing number worksheets and before and after numbers worksheets. For the patterns the chart reveals, see the skip counting worksheets, and for comparing numbers on the chart the greater than less than worksheets. Once place value is secure, the rounding numbers worksheets build directly on the tens column.
