A few weeks ago, I shared a free rounding money cheat sheet that a teacher had asked me to make. Then just last week, a neighbor asked if I could help her daughter with her rounding whole numbers homework. It seems everyone is rounding all of a sudden!
In this post, I want to share a new rounding decimals math escape room. There's also a special code below:)
Rounding is definitely one of those topics that seems to follow students throughout school. Even my high schoolers have struggled with rounding decimals when we dealt with rounding answers in consumer math to the nearest cent. It also comes up if students are typing answers into an online learning platform where answers need to rounded correctly in order not to be marked wrong.
Today, I made a rounding decimals escape room to make it fun to practice rounding decimals to different places. You can use code ROUNDING50 to take 50% off.
The math escape room's puzzles cover:
- rounding decimals to nearest whole or ten
- rounding decimals to nearest tenth or hundredth
- add decimals then rounding to nearest whole or ten
- rounding decimals to nearest cent or dollar
- rounding decimals to nearest hundredth or thousandth
This is technically a 5th grade standard (5.NBT.A.4), but since middle school students also struggle with rounding, I added it to this middle school math escape room bundle.
The math escape room comes in self-checking digital form, and also as a printable PDF for days off devices. The printable version of the math escape room comes with an answer sheet for student codes.
The digital version is an answer-validated Google Form. Students move to each next puzzle after correctly entering the puzzle's 4-letter code.
Since there are 9 answer choices and the code requires 4 letters in order, there are 3,024 possible combinations to unlock each puzzle. This cuts down on students correctly guessing!
