Developing our estimation and tallying skills, using beans and spaghetti!

We had a great breakfast this morning, beans or spaghetti on toast. The first job was to decide which we preferred which was a tricky job! But it wasn’t that simple, we had a challenge. Our first job was to estimate how many beans/spaghetti hoops we thought were in a tin, this ranged from 57 to 450. We then counted the beans and spaghetti hoops as we ate, completing a tally to ensure we kept track of the numbers. It was hard work but our resilience shone through and we discovered that a tin held approximately 431 beans!
