This board game includes standard practice problems, word problems, and yes/no questions to solve.

This printable resource comes with the following:

• Instructions page
• Game board

Tips for Differentiation + Scaffolding 

A team of dedicated, experienced educators created this resource to support your math lessons. 

In addition to individual student work time, use this board game to enhance learning through guided math groups, whole class lessons, or remote learning assignments. 

If you have a mixture of above and below-level learners, check out these suggestions for keeping students on track with the concepts: 

🆘 Support Struggling Students

For students needing additional support, provide them with a reference sheet reminding them of the rounding rules.

➕ Challenge Fast Finishers

If students need an additional challenge, encourage them to think of additional numbers that round to the same answer on their cards.
