Rounding using number lines is a helpful visual strategy that allows students to understand the concept of rounding and apply it in a concrete way.

Begin by drawing a vertical or horizontal number line that includes the number you want to round.
Determine the rounding interval. For example, rounding to the nearest 10 means looking at the tens on the number line.
Identify the two closest endpoints on the number line.
Find the number that is halfway between the two closest endpoints.
Use the halfway number to determine whether to round up or down based on the position of the original number on the number line. If it is closer to the lower endpoint, round down. If it is closer to the higher endpoint, round up. If it is at the halfway mark, round up.
