🗺️ Empathy Map: Rounding Decisions

Using a simple 4-square empathy map (Says, Thinks, Does, Needs), students organize interview evidence about how users rely on rounding for shopping, travel, or budgeting. Students highlight where place value (ones or tens digit) influenced a rounding choice and note why rounding up or down mattered for the decision. To close, students gather in a circle and briefly share how rounding helped their user and how they felt discovering real-life math connections.
