Rounding Using a Number Line PowerPoint: Rounding to the Nearest 10 and 100

Are you searching for a step-by-step PowerPoint that can be used to introduce rounding numbers to your students in a way that will grab their attention? You've come to the right place! This highly-interactive PowerPoint uses number lines and ninjas. Numbers either get kicked UP to the larger end of the number line, or numbers get kicked DOWN to the smaller end of the number line. So many practice opportunities are included!

PowerPoints filled with visuals are ideal for teaching new content to students because PowerPoints tend to be highly engaging and concepts can be easily broken down into understandable chunks of information. But let's face it... they are so time-consuming to create! Fortunately, now you have an option of using one that is already complete, kid-tested, and ready to go for you!

HERE'S THE SEQUENCE OF TOPICS COVERED IN THIS POWERPOINT:

Slides 1-14: Introduction to Rounding & Rounding to the Nearest Ten (2-digit numbers)

Slides 15-27: Rounding to the Nearest Ten (3-digit numbers)

Slides 28-33: Rounding to the Nearest Ten (4-digit numbers)

Slides 34-51: Rounding to the Nearest Hundred (3 and 4-digit numbers)

Slides 52-67: Rounding to the Nearest Thousand (4 and 5-digit numbers)

Slides 68-70: Putting It All Together: Rounding one number to the nearest ten, hundred, and thousand

*If you only teach rounding to the nearest ten and hundred, you can show slides 1-51, and skip the final 20 slides.

***A PowerPoint companion handout is also included in this file. As you advance through the PowerPoint, students can record their answers on the handout. The companion handout is available in three formats. One includes number lines that are already labeled with numbers, one features number lines that are not labeled at all, and the other version includes number lines where only some of the number lines are labeled.
