It reminds us to first find the place (circle it) we are rounding to. Then, look at the number "next door." If that "next door" digit is 5 or more- raise the score (add 1) of the digit to which we're rounding. If it is 4 or less-let it (the digit in the place value to which we are rounding) rest (stay the same). Finally, look to the right of the digit in the place value to which we are rounding to and put zeros in sight (change all the digits to the right of the number rounding to to zeros).
