I would like to sign into iCloud on my iPod Touch 3rd Generation. When I enter the iCloud account name and password, however, I am prompted to enter a 2 Factor Authentication. However, the iPod Touch will not present a screen where I can enter the 6 digit number that pops up on all my other devices. Is there a way to fix this?

See the following from Two-factor authentication for Apple ID - Apple Support


If you use two-factor authentication with devices running older OS versions—like an Apple TV (2nd or 3rd generation)—you might be asked to add your six-digit verification code to the end of your password when signing in. Get your verification code from a trusted device running iOS 9 and later or OS X El Capitan and later, or have it sent to your trusted phone number. Then type your password followed by the six-digit verification code directly into the password field.
