Laura Bitto
Lead Speaker:

Why is rounding a difficult skill for students to master? Most students can quote a rounding rule from memory, but yet they don’t understand the concept. Participants will explore hands-on alternatives to the rounding rule that will increase students' conceptual understanding and help them make sense of the rounding process.
