Description
This fun Scoot game will help your students to practise rounding numbers with two decimal places.
The resource includes a wide variety of Scoot cards featuring number problems that require students to round to the nearest tenth and whole number. Some questions are based on converting fractions to decimals, while others are presented as word problems that encourage real-world reasoning. This blend of question types keeps the activity engaging and provides multiple ways for students to practise their rounding skills.
Your students will love the movement and interaction involved in this game. As they move around the classroom, they’ll read, think and respond at each Scoot card location. Whether you choose to have them complete the game in their own time or direct them to “Scoot” simultaneously on your cue, it’s sure to bring energy and learning together in a meaningful way.
