Number Estimate


Learning Outcomes

Students will:
  • estimate the size of numbers to the nearest 10 or 100.

Activity

  • Have the children use a length of string to make a number line to 100. The length of string should reach across the classroom. Hang cards, decorated with groups of krill and with the appropriate numbers, at the multiples of ten along the line. Using a cutout of a whale, place it at various places along the number line and ask the children where the closest group of krill is located.

Assessment Tips from Old Tom the Turtle

  • Ask individual students to explain the estimate and note the responses.
