Estimation and Prediction

Estimation is a rough measurement of the value, size, number, or amount of something.

Prediction is a statement or a guess about something that will occur in the future.

Try practicing estimation!

“I think there are approximately 15 green triangles in this jar.”

"I think it will take 10 minutes to sort the shapes in the jar."
