About this resource

Round twenty numbers to the nearest ten thousand. The values progress from five digits into the millions.

  • Twenty values for ten-thousand rounding practice
  • A progression from five-digit numbers to multi-million values
  • A write-in format for every rounded estimate

Curriculum reference — England: Do not map the whole sheet to Year 5 because its target place is ten thousand; actual values matter. Examples beyond one million require the Year6 rather than Year5 rounding scope. Selected skills only; reference stage is not an overall reading age, complete curriculum coverage, or an automatic recommendation for every learner.
