  • Estimation - To find a value that is close enough to the right answer, usually with some thought or calculation involved is known as estimation.

Common misconception

Pupils may find it difficult to identify the multiples of 10 a number is between when estimating.

Provide a number line and continue to use stem sentences to support pupils in their thinking.

Estimation is a key skill and should be modelled clearly, with pupils encouraged to use estimation at every opportunity. Take time to model your 'thinking aloud' process while estimating.
