Children round any number up to 1,000,000 to any power of 10 up to 100,000.
You may wish to practise counting in 100,000s first, and then
practise rounding to the nearest 100,000 before looking at mixed questions.
Ask,
“Which multiples of 100,000 does the number lie between?”
" How can you represent the rounding of this number on a number line?"
“Which division on the number line is the number closer to?”
" What is the number rounded to the nearest 100,000?"

Rounding numbers
These worksheets are differentiated. The focus is on rounding numbers to the nearest 10, 100 or 1,000. It is important that children hear and use the language of “rounding to the nearest” rather than “rounding up” and “rounding down”, as this can lead to errors. Number lines are a particularly useful tool to support this, as children can see which multiples of 10, 100 or 1,000 the given numbers are closer to. When there is a 5 in the relevant place value column, despite being exactly halfway between the two multiples, we round to the next one. Watch for : The language “round down”/”round up” and so round 62,180 to 61,000 (or 61,180) when asked to round to the nearest 1,000.
