Practice your skills making estimates with this Rounding Robots game! Just log into Google Drive, and you will see a new folder at the top called "Math Games to Print and Play." You will need to print a copy of the game board for each person who is playing. Ask your parents first if you can print the file!
In class, we will use special dice that have 10 sides to play the game, but at home, you could use a regular deck of cards. Just take out the face cards and only use numbers 1-9. You can use beans, pennies, or pieces from other games as markers.
- Put the cards face down in a pile.
- Turn two cards over and put them next to each other to form a 2-digit number.
- Round that number to the nearest 10 and cover it with a marker.
- The first player to cover five numbers in a row is the winner!
I laminate the games to make them last longer, but you can also put them in a clear plastic page protector or even a large Ziploc bag.
Hope you have fun practicing estimates!
