Maths | Basketball activity

Rounding is a strategy for maths that uses division and addition we used rounding on a physical activity. The activity was dribbling a basketball 50 times and repeat it 5 times.

Rounding means to circle the number to the nearest ten.

There are two ways to round numbers up and down the numbers that you have round down are 1, 2, 3, 4,  the numbers that you have to round up are 5, 6, 7, 8, 9.

Divide means to share something equally for example 6 divided by 2 is 3 because 3+3 =6.

Addition means to add up numbers for example 5+5 equals 10 I know because if i put up five fingers and another five fingers that equals ten.

Rounding can help people understand different equations.

LI: to investigate units of time.
