Use Place Value Understanding To Round Multi-Digit Numbers To Any Place Value


Description

Objective:  Use place value understanding to round multi-digit numbers to any place value.

Rounding to the leftmost unit is easiest for students, but Grade 4 students learn the advantages to rounding to any place value, which increases accuracy. Students move from dependency on the number line and learn to round a number to a particular unit. To round 34,108 to the nearest thousand, students find the nearest multiple, 34,000 or 35,000, by seeing if 34,108 is more than or less than halfway between the multiples.
