About this worksheet

Rounding helps third graders estimate with numbers that are easier to use mentally. The skill is not simply chopping off digits; students must decide which benchmark a number is closest to. The hardest cases are halfway values and numbers that round up into the next hundred or to 1,000. This worksheet rotates between rounding to the nearest ten, rounding to the nearest hundred, finding the tens just below and above a number, and choosing which number rounds to a given ten or hundred.

Number-line visuals appear on the support sheet, where they show the interval and hide no answer. Support versions use numbers far from the halfway point. Standard versions add halfway values such as 345 and 250 and numbers that round up into a new hundred. Challenge versions round to 1,000, use two rounding rules at once, and estimate sums. Encourage your child to name the two possible rounded numbers first, then decide which one is nearer.
