Activity: Addition and subtraction

2. Try the rounding challenge

Rounding is an important skill your child will be expected to use to estimate and to check answers to calculations.

You could help your child to practise rounding with the calculations below. For each sum, you and your child could round the numbers to the nearest 10, 100, or 1000 in order to estimate the answer. Which one of you can get the estimate fastest? Then ask your child to work out the correct answer. Whose estimate was closest to the real answer? You can add an extra element of challenge by using a stopwatch or timer!
