When we’re adding and subtracting, do evens make odds into evens? Do odds make evens odd? Which one has… more power!?

Rounding Numbers (But Not To 10)

Rounding Numbers (But Not To 10)

What could we possibly do to make rounding more interesting for students who already get it? In this series, students consider how they might round to values other than “the nearest 10.” How, for example, do we round to the nearest 9? 7? 15?
