Rounding Numbers (Help with Homework)

Today was rounding day!  Students spent a lot of time working on this challenging skill.  We started working on rounding numbers yesterday, and today’s focus was rounding numbers to different place values.  For example, 24,829 can be rounded to the nearest ten-thousand (20,000), the nearest thousand (25,000), the nearest hundred (24,900), or the nearest ten (24,830).  It took a lot of hard work for students to begin to feel comfortable with how to round to different places.  So while they worked on their worksheet (which they’re finishing for homework), I made this video to help them (and parents) tonight! Enjoy!

Tuesday’s morning work

Good morning!  As you come in, I’d like to you get a partner and take an iPad.  (One iPad PER partnership, please.)  Below this paragraph, you will find a link to a video I made about comparing numbers.  Please tap that link and watch the video.  Make sure it’s loud enough for you to hear, but don’t make it so loud that it distracts other groups.  And go!
