Estimating is Like Being a Detective!

Imagine you have a big jar of jellybeans. Instead of counting each one, you can guess how many are inside. You might say, “I think there are about 50 jellybeans!” That’s your estimate!

It’s a fun way to make a smart guess. Just like in a story, where characters use their imagination, you can use your brain to figure things out.

So next time you see a pile of toys or cookies, try estimating! It’s a magical way to play with numbers and have fun!

Happy Estimating!
