Rounding Worksheets

Are your students practising how to round larger numbers? Once students understand the skill of rounding, this can be applied to any number. Teach Starter has created a set of fun riddle worksheets that your students can use to sharpen their rounding skills.

Each of the 3 riddle worksheets contains 12 problems where students will round a 4- to 6-digit number. Once students have rounded the number correctly, they will reveal the answer to a riddle by plugging in the corresponding letters.

An answer key is included with your download to make marking fast and easy!  

Tips for Differentiation + Scaffolding 

In addition to independent student work time, use this worksheet as an activity for:

• Guided math groups 
• Lesson wrap-up
• Fast finishers 
• Homework assignment
• Whole-class review (via smartboard)

If students need a bit of a challenge, use the editable version to include decimal values. 

For students who need a bit of support, invite them to reference previous assignments, posters, or anchor charts. Additionally, provide students with a place value chart and a highlighter to mark the place being rounded.
