C. Development Activities
1. Presentation :
The teacher shows a segment of the
number line. Have them study the
segment of the number line.
2. 2. Discussion
From what number each one starts
with and ends in set A?

How about in set B?

(Call on the volunteer to plot the

following given numbers on the number
line.)
In which hundred is 142 nearer?
In which hundred is 253 nearer?
In which thousand is 1,942 is nearer?
In which thousand is 2, 535 is nearer?
To what place value was the number in
set A and set B rounded?

Set A starts with 100 and ends with 200

and start with 200 and ends with 300.
Set B starts with 1000 and ends with
2000, and start with 200 and ends with
300.

100
300
200
300

To the nearest hundreds and nearest

thousands.

Very Good! Class, the number can be

rounded to the nearest hundreds and
nearest thousands. Since it is the
highest place value ,after rounding off
add the given numbers.
The teacher presents another example.

+1238

(Let the pupils identify the hundreds or

thousands each number closest.)
What is the rule of rounding number
