Estimations

Last week's homework project was a necessary component for Friday's math lesson.  
The children were given small ziplock bags and asked to fill them with small objects.  
During our math time, everyone estimated the bag contents and then counted their own objects. Next, they revealed the actual numbers and recorded them on the clipboard sheets. 

The largest group was a collection of 157 glass beads.  
The smallest was a group of 5 toys.
The children did their best estimating with sillyb*ndz and they did a fantastic job with counting by tens!
