Estimation with Green Plastic Bins

Mr. Avery's class at Bowman engaged in a math estimation activity with our green plastic packing bins.

First students used a variety of methods to try to estimate the number of bins in the hallway.  Next they checked strategies with another student -- and then double checked their work.


Next, they explained their thinking to Mr. Avery...

And the final count of boxes is ...  452

Since 1000 bins were delivered to Bowman School on Thursday.  How many bins have been packed by Bowman Teachers so far?

Thanks for doing MOVING MATH with us!
