Number Cards
Product Code : LSK-ML-10126
Number Cards (SKU LSK-ML-10126) are colourful, durable plastic place value cards that give a concrete representation of units, tens, hundreds and thousands. Used at the right level, they show zero acting as a placeholder and how the value of a digit changes with its position, making them a core primary maths resource. The cards are a manufactured product of Science Lab Supplies, whose factory sits at Plot 448, HSIIDC Industrial Area, Saha, Ambala, India; they are sold direct to schools, colleges, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
The cards are made of colourful, durable plastic and cover four place values: units, tens, hundreds and thousands. By laying cards together, learners build multi-digit numbers and see each digit's contribution, including where a zero holds a place, which makes an abstract idea concrete and easy to discuss.

Applications and Experiments for the Number Cards
Teachers use the cards to build numbers, break them into expanded form and compare how the same digit is worth more or less in different places. They are one of the simplest maths lab manipulatives for making place value concrete, and they work equally well on a pupil's desk or held up for the class.
- NCERT Classes 2–3: tens and ones, then hundreds.
- NCERT Classes 4–5: four-digit numbers up to thousands.
- Writing numbers in expanded form and back again.
- Showing zero as a placeholder in numbers such as 305 or 1,040.
