Rounding numbers should be way more than just a procedure where we ask students to look to see if the number behind is a 5 or higher.  Helping elementary students round should be based upon their number sense.  In this 2nd episode of the Rounding Numbers series, I’m giving my 2nd tip on how to help your students round with understanding.  To see this episode instead of just listen, go to <a href= "https://www.youtube.com/BuildMathMinds">https://www.youtube.com/BuildMathMinds</a>    To get any links mentioned in the episode go to: <a href= "http://buildmathminds.com/174">BuildMathMinds.com/174</a>

Episode 174 - Helping Students Understand Magnitude of Numbers -  Rounding Numbers Series

The Build Math Minds podcast is for my fellow Recovering Traditionalists out there. If you don’t know whether or not you are a Recovering Traditionalist, here’s how I define us. We are math educators who used to teach math the traditional way. Flip lesson by lesson in the textbook, directly teaching step-by-step how to solve math problems. But now, we are working to change that to a style of teaching math that is fun and meets our students where they are at, not just teaching what comes next in the textbook. We want to encourage our students to be thinkers, problem solvers, and lovers of mathematics..we are wanting to build our students math minds and not just create calculators. If that is you, then this podcast is for you.
