Spyglass Books: Take a Guess: A Look at Estimation

"This is a good book to give... younger readers different examples of estimation. These include making predictions about weight, volume, time, and weather. It also gives examples of when exact counts or measurements are required, as in voting or cooking which helps illustrate the difference between estimation and exact measure. This book contains a glossary to explain the various words used within the book. It also gives web sites for readers to acquire more information and other books for parents and teachers to turn to for more resources." -- Debbie Truncer, Academy Edison Elementary School
