Hello Friends,
We have an exciting estimation jar this week, prepared by Isaac (Thank you, Isaac!). I've taken four pictures of the estimation jar at different angles so that your child can see everything in it.
We invite you to post your child's estimation with their name in the comments section of this post before noon this Friday. On Friday afternoon we will post a video of Isaac counting out the objects in the estimation jar, so your child can see how close their guess was to the actual number.
This is a simple and fun activity to duplicate at home! Use any clear container and allow different family members to take turns filling it so that others can make their estimates. Just like we do in class, you can practice counting out the objects from the jar on your own homemade number line.
Some students will enjoy this in a more formal fashion as we do in class, and others will just enjoy filling and counting over and over! Meet your child where they are at to keep it fun for everyone.
Happy Estimating!
Coco thinks there are 12 cars in the jar!
