After our work last week we realize that some of us needs a little review of how to round large numbers.
Remember our in class rhyme...
1 thru 4
stay on the floor (the numbers 1, 2, 3, or 4 will go back down to zero- not big enough)
5 thru 9
climb the vine (the numbers are larger and are big enough to raise the ten, hundred thousand...)
Here is another rap to help you remember...
The Rounding Rap!
Find that place value and circle the digit,
Move to the right and underline, get it?
Zero to four - circle stays the same,
Five to nine - add one is the game,
Now flex your muscles like a hero,
Digits to the right change to ZERO,
All other digits stay the same,
Yo! You're a winner in the ROUNDING GAME!
