What Decade is It? - Rounding Whole Numbers to the Nearest 10

In this lesson, students will tap prior knowledge of place value and dimes to round numbers to the nearest 10. Students will use number lines with tick marks in increments of 10 to visualize the closer decade and then progress to using the place value of numerals to round to the tens place. Pairs of students will participate in a rounding activity using a number line.
