6 Student Edition Sample Page Motivation Station Roll and Round Name Play Roll and Round with a partner or in a small group. Each group needs four dice, a pencil, and a paper clip to use with the spinner. Each player needs a game sheet. In turn, each player rolls four dice and records the numbers in the Digits Rolled column of the table. The player decides what number to create using the four digits and records this number in the My Number column. The player then spins the spinner to determine whether to round the number to the nearest 10, 100, or 1, 000 and records the rounded number in the Rounded Number column. On each play, the player adds the new rounded number to the previous rounded number and keeps a running total. The object of the game is to be the first player to reach the target number of 10, 000 without going over. A player may choose to stop rolling at any point in the game if he/she believes that continuing play would exceed the target number of 10, 000. Spinner Digits Rolled My Number Rounded Number Target Number 10,000 Parent Activities 1. Record the mileage on your car and have your child round the number to the nearest ten thousand, thousand, and hundred. Discuss how the rounded numbers differ. 2.

What clue was given in the story that the number of fish Hugh Thomas claims to have caught was not an exact number? Do you think the number of fish Hugh Thomas claims to have caught was an approximation or an exaggeration? What is the fewest number of fish Hugh Thomas could have caught if he rounded the actual number caught to 1,000,000? What is a real-life situation in which rounded numbers are used? What is a real-life situation that requires exact numbers?

9 Vocabulary Focus The following are essential vocabulary terms for this unit. approximate estimate reasonable round Vocabulary Activity Acrostic Poem Students create acrostic poems that express the meaning or critical attributes of the word round. The letters in the word may be the first letter of each line of the poem or be placed in any position. Here are some examples with the word cup. C ustomary unit A quart Contains 4 U sed for liquid measure Equal to 8 ounces P ints contain two of them Measures liquid that Pours Students work with partners and read the original acrostic poems. (DOK 3, Bloom s Level: Synthesis/Create) Suggested Formative Vocabulary Assessment The teacher or a student reads one of the poems written in the previous activity. Another student explains how the poem helps define the vocabulary word. The student may also offer suggestions to improve the poem to give a better description. The teacher may need to provide more support for some students before beginning instruction in this unit. (DOK 2, Bloom s Level: Analysis/Analyze) motivationmath LEVEL 4 ILLEGAL TO COPY 101

10 Suggested Instructional Activities 1. The teacher shows students how to use a roller coaster model to round numbers to the nearest ten, hundred, or thousand. The teacher guides students to discuss the boundary numbers that are used to label the bottom of each hill. Then, they discuss the halfway point numbers that label the top of each hill. The example shows with rounding to the nearest hundred. The number 181 is located between the boundary numbers 100 and 200. Since 181 is greater than 150, it is located past 150 on the downhill slope. Students discuss which way the roller coaster will coast to reach the nearest hundred. The number 181 will coast down to 200, so 181 rounds to 200. Finally, students discuss what happens at a halfway point such as 50 or 150. Repeat this process with a roller coaster number line labeled for thousands (DOK 1, Bloom s Level: Comprehension/Understand) 2. The teacher creates BINGO cards with rounded numbers in the spaces (e.g., 300, 4,000, 50,000, 600,000). After the cards are distributed to the students, the teacher calls a number. Students round the called number to the greatest place value (e.g., 47,345 rounds to 50,000.). Students locate the rounded value on their cards and cover the appropriate spaces. Play proceeds like a traditional BINGO game. (DOK 1, Bloom s Level: Application/Apply) 3. Students play the Roll and Round game on page 54 in the student edition. Students discuss strategies for playing the game. (DOK 2, Bloom s Level: Analysis/Analyze) 4. Students work in groups of four. Students discuss a step-by-step process for rounding numbers to a given place and create graphic organizers to outline the steps in the procedure. Each group explains their graphic organizer to the class and posts the graphic organizer on the bulletin board.

11 Suggested Formative Assessment The teacher displays five 6-digit numbers on a place value chart.

Number Nearest Hundred Thousand Nearest Ten Thousand Nearest Thousand Nearest Hundred Nearest Ten 782, , , , , , , , , ,185 The teacher asks students to explain how they rounded the numbers. Based on student responses, the teacher adjusts instruction or plans interventions to meet their needs. (DOK 1, Bloom s Level: Application/Apply) Suggested Reflection/Closure Activity In groups of three, students complete Critical Thinking activity 1 on page 53 in the student edition. What is the least number that is: 1000 when rounded to the nearest thousand, 800 when rounded to the nearest hundred, and 770 when rounded to the nearest ten? Students share and justify their responses. (DOK 3, Bloom s Level: Analysis/Analyze) Suggested Formative Assessment Given a group of six numbers, students select all the numbers that round to a given number. They justify why they did not select each of the other numbers. The teacher notes misconceptions and provides additional support as needed.

12 Interventions 1. The teacher creates a large number line on the floor with painter s tape or on the sidewalk with chalk. The teacher labels two boundary numbers (e.g., 2000 and 3000). Students identify the midpoint on the number line, and one student stands at that point. The teacher calls a number to be rounded within these boundaries such as Students discuss where this number would be located, and another student stands at that approximate location on the number line. Students determine which way to round based on the location of the midpoint. The activity may be repeated with other numbers and boundary points. (DOK 1, Bloom s Level: Application/Apply) 2. Students round a number to a given place. Then students write step-by-step directions or explanations for the methods they used to round. (DOK 1, Bloom s Level: Comprehension/Understand) 3. The teacher reads books such as Hottest, Coldest, Highest, Deepest by Steve Jenkins or Highest, Longest, Deepest by John Malam. Students discuss the numbers and round each number to several different places, recording the results in a chart. (DOK 1, Bloom s Level: Application/Apply) Suggested Formative Assessment Each student writes a summary of how to round numbers, including three examples. The teacher uses this information to plan additional interventions as needed. (DOK 3, Bloom s Level: Analysis/Analyze) Extending Student Thinking The word round has several meanings. In fourth-grade math, it means to approximate a number to a given place value. Round can also refer to figures that are shaped like circles. Each student generates a list of math words that have more than one meaning. The student then creates an electronic slideshow to present the word and show its meanings with words, numbers, or pictures. Multiple-meaning words might include acute, angle, area, base, center, meter, convert, factor, foot, formula, gram, line, mass, meter, obtuse, plot, pound, prime, product, ray, right, second, square, volume, or yard.
