3.NBT.1 – Use place value understanding to round whole numbers to the nearest 10 or 100

Center 1: Mystery Pictures

Included are 3 different mystery pictures – include all three in your center, or just pick one at a time! To prep, print Mystery Picture Mat and puzzle pieces on the same color paper, one color for each mystery picture. This will help keep track of which pieces go with which mat. Students will look at the mat, read the prompts in each square, and find the piece that answer each prompt to place on the mat. As they place the answers on the mat, a picture will form! Each mystery picture includes 20 pieces that will ask your students to round to the nearest 10 or 100.

Center 3: Task Cards
