Year 5, week beginning 16.10.23 Rounding to the nearest 10, 100, 1000, 10 000 and 100 000

Hello everyone and welcome to this week's blog, 'Rounding to the nearest 10, 100, 1000, 10 000 and 100 000.' Although it seems like these numbers are huge, just remember that it's always the same skill and the same rhyme to remember: 

If it's 5 or above, give it a shove 

If it's 4 or below, let it flow 

This week, during our session, we will be using place value grids to help us with our rounding. Do play the bingo against your parents and have a lovely time winning!
