Hi families,
In an effort to increase student number sense I have decided to create a new activity called Estimation Station where students take guesses as to the amount of items in a jar. I think beginning with 15-20 items and increasing into the hundreds would be good. I am envisioning a new jar every week or so. If you are interested in making some jars, please let me know! Items that could be used: buttons, pennies, erasers, skittles, beans, gumballs etc. The 1st graders will love it! Please let me know how many items are actually in the jar. You can have it back or donate it to our classroom math tool collection. Have a great rest of your week!
