Rounding

I used some of the Vandawalle activities for rounding and they were perfect. In the past I used the if it is 5 or more round up strategies, but I like the use of number lines and the hundred charts to help them see why we round up or down. I really liked the activity for creating a number line and finding where the students should place numbers.
This week I am giving a pretest on adding two digit numbers with word problems. I created a test and uploaded it to masterconnect.com. If you have not looked at the site it is worth the look.
