Rounding on a Vertical Number Line

We're about to begin our rounding and estimating unit.  Our district utilizes the Eureka curriculum.  I created the reference sheet and worksheets to help my students practice rounding on the vertical number line.  It was a little daunting at first but actually makes more sense than just thinking about the good ole 0 to 4 rounds down and 5 to 9 rounds up.  This is a great strategy for visual learners.  I would recommend sending home the reference for parents and a support at home.

Multiplication Models

I am currently teaching multiplication and division to my third graders. As the unit has progressed, it was evident that students were not understanding the relationship between the different models.



 I created this worksheet to review the different models we use to represent multiplication using Eureka and to further explain their relationship. You can get the worksheet for free at my TPT store here
