We had so much fun using conversational hearts in our math lessons. We talked about estimating and related it to a handful of "Cherrios". We didn't want to give silly answers, so we thought really heard about how many "Cherrios" we could hold in our hand if we were getting a snack.
Here is an anchor chart showing our estimations. As you can see, some of our estimations/guess's were really close, and some of them were WAY off (including Mrs. Redfern's). We took time to discuss how an estimation/guess is rarely the actual amount. An estimation is not wrong, unless we are being silly about it.
