Estimation

Students will be able to use mathematics skills to estimate, approximate, and predict and to judge reasonableness of results.

Objectives

  • Round numbers.
  • Estimate present and future values from graphs or numerical information.
  • Apply intervals as estimates.
  • Apply problem-solving procedures to solve or suggest a solution to a given problem.
  • Use mental arithmetic to estimate results of computations.

     Simple rounding is part of the Primary level study. At the Intermediate level, students focus on chance and probability. Middle/Junior High students focus on distance, weight and time and more rounding. Permutations, combinations, and probability formulas are targeted at the High School level.
