Round ‘Em Up
Purpose & SOL
 The students will sort numbers by rounding to the nearest tens.
 Math 2.1
Materials
 2 sets of Round ‘Em Up cards, laminated, each set printed on a different color
 Round ‘Em Up recording sheets
Length
20 min.
Introduction
The teacher will begin the activity with the explanation that some numbers are strong (flex muscles) and others are
weak (reach down and touch your toes). Encourage students to explore this idea, have them stand, call out numbers
in the ones place and have students stand and show you whether they are strong or weak. Review place value and
rounding.
Implementation
Scoot
1) The teacher will show the students the different Round ‘Em Up cards and how to record their response on the
recording sheet.
2) Divide the class into groups of 2 and give each student their own recording sheet.
3) Assign teams to a specific set of cards so that there are enough cards for each group. This game will be played
like Scoot.
4) Students will travel from card to card rounding to the nearest 10. Be sure they are recording their answers and
doing the assigned physical activity.
5) When they’ve gone around to all 12 cards, the game is over.
Cool Down
Take three deep inhales and stretch.
Modifications
Use one set of cards and have the students work in pairs.
