A hundreds chart shows the numbers 1 to 100 in ten rows of ten. Every row starts with a new ten, so children can see patterns: the ones digit stays the same going down a column, and the tens digit stays the same going along a row.

Common questions

What is a hundreds chart?

A hundreds chart is a 10 by 10 grid with the numbers 1 to 100. Each row holds ten numbers, so the chart shows how our number system is built in tens.

What is the difference between a hundreds chart and a 120 chart?

A 120 chart adds two more rows, 101 to 120. The Common Core asks 1st graders to count to 120, so the 120 chart is the one to use in 1st grade.

What patterns can children find on a hundreds chart?

Down a column, numbers go up by 10. Along a row, they go up by 1. All the numbers ending in 0 sit in the last column, and the numbers ending in 5 make a column too.
