March Estimate Jar

We were so excited to get to do our Estimate Jar for March to wrap up our month a day early since tomorrow we have our Easter Egg Hunt!

Each student wrote down their estimate on their white board of how many chocolate gold coins were in the jar. 

We decided today we would count by 2's because we know counting by ones takes us a long time! 

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 the chocolate gold coins.

Elena was our lucky winner!!! She was bang on the number of 26 treats we had in total! She knew our tradition is to share the treats with everyone in class and students may have brought home their treats (if they didn't eat them out of their lunch today)! Elena also got to take over the leftovers! Score!
