What children learn in Level 3

To read a big number, read the part before the comma, then say thousand, then read the rest.
352,817 is three hundred fifty-two thousand, eight hundred seventeen.
Zeros aren't said out loud. 305,042 is three hundred five thousand, forty-two.
To write a number you hear, fill every place. Sixty thousand, nine is 60,009: the thousands, hundreds, and tens get zeros.
