This worksheet is a game, so there are no specific numbers written on it for me to solve right now. To play the game and fill in the table, you need to follow these steps:
1.
Create Number Cards: Write different numbers on small pieces of paper (cards). Good numbers to use would be things like 42, 158, 3,490, or 12,567.
2.
Pick a Card: Take one card from the pile. This number goes in the first column called
"Start number".
3.
Round the Number:
*
Nearest 10: Look at the ones digit. If it is 5 or more, round up. If it is less than 5, keep the tens digit the same. (Example: 42 becomes 40).
*
Nearest 100: Look at the tens digit. If it is 5 or more, round up. If it is less than 5, keep the hundreds digit the same. (Example: 158 becomes 200).
*
Nearest 1000: Look at the hundreds digit. If it is 5 or more, round up. If it is less than 5, keep the thousands digit the same. (Example: 3,490 becomes 3,000).
4.
Write Answers: Fill in the rest of the row with your rounded answers.
5.
Repeat: Pick another card and do it again until the table is full!
Parent Tip: Review the logic above to help your child master the concept of rounding numbers game.
