I found this little ditty online from another teacher blog. The students are using "The Rounding Rap" to learn the rules of rounding. Songs like this make it easy for us all to remember new information, aside from being FUN!
The Rounding Rap!
Find the place value and underline the digit.
Move to the right and circle it, get it?
Zero through four—Stays the same.
Five through nine— Add one is the game.
Now flex your muscles, like a hero.
Digits to the right, change to zero.
All the other digits stay the same.
Yo! You’re a winner in the rounding game!
And here the students are practicing rounding to the nearest 10, 100 and 1000.
