Today, we got to do our November Estimate Jar. Each student wrote down their estimate on their white board.
We discussed our rules for counting objects. We decided that counting one item at a time would take us a long time so we did groups of 5 to speed things up and learned about counting by 5's today.
Then for the big moment...we all took a turn going around the class and sharing our estimate. We compared numbers and how far away our estimate was from the actual total we had of candies.
Clayton was our lucky winner!!! He was the only one that guessed a 3 digit number and we had 136 candies!! He was super kind to share the candies with everyone in class today and students have brought home their treats! Clayton also got to take over the leftovers! Score!
Students are really excited to see what is going to fill our estimate jar next for December!
