Round to the nearest 10, 100 or 1,000

In this worksheet, children build on their knowledge of rounding
to the nearest 10, 100 and 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.
