About this resource
Description
Rounding is how third graders turn an exact number into a number that is easier to think about, and this round to the nearest ten worksheet gives them steady practice with that habit. Students look at the digit in the ones place, decide whether it pulls the number up to the next ten or leaves it at the ten below, and write the rounded number down. The numbers on this page all sit within 1,000, which is exactly where third grade rounding lives in the standards.
Print this round to the nearest ten worksheet and hand it out as morning work, as guided practice after a place value lesson, or as a quick check before a unit test. The first section is straight computation, so students build speed and confidence. The second section moves the same skill into short word problems, including one that asks a student to find and explain a classmate’s mistake. An answer key is included on the last page.
What’s Included
- Ten rounding problems with two-digit and three-digit numbers
- A printed answer box for every problem, sized the same on every item
- Three applied word problems, including a written explanation task
- A full answer key on the final page
- One printable PDF page plus the key, ready for the copier
Three Reasons This Helps Kids
- It separates the rule from the arithmetic, so students can name what the ones digit is telling them.
- It mixes numbers that round up with numbers that round down in no set pattern, so guessing does not work.
- It ends with an explain-your-thinking item, which is how state tests ask about rounding.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Try reading each number out loud and asking students to name the two tens it sits between before they round. Cover the answer boxes and use the numbers as a warm-up on a whiteboard. Send the page home as a homework page for a 3rd grade estimation worksheet review, or laminate a copy for a math center so students can work it again with a dry-erase marker. Pair the last question with a class discussion about why a five always rounds up.
