ESTIMATING AND ROUNDING

Do you remember the rule of rounding – If it ends in 1-4 you round down and if it ends in 5-9 you round up.

e.g.

11 ends in a 1 so round down to 10.

13 ends in a 3 so round down to 10.

17 ends in a 7 so round up to 20.

19 ends in a 9 so round up to 20.

It is like a + sign, but it has fallen on its side. It also looks like the letter x. Can you have a go at writing the multiplication sign a few times? Here it is below.

I would like you to have a look through this powerpoint.

You now have so many strategies to add and subtract

*Using a number line and a blank number line

*Relating to doubles and number facts

*Partitioning

Previously I have given you word problems to solve. Today your task is to create your very own addition word problems for me to solve. Keep your calculations within 100 and just go for it. Wonder if you can catch me out! Remember you need to work out the answer aswell so you know if I am correct or not. See if you can come up with 4 questions.

Remember the language task we did- refer to that if you need help with language.

Here is an example – Mel got 48 birthday cards and Tracey got 21 birthday cards. How many cards did they get altogether? 48+21 = 69
