How many pieces of Lego in the Lego jar?
This week, we will be estimating how many pieces of Lego there are in the jar. Every day I will give you another clue to help you guess how many pieces there are.
Today, we don't have a clue... We are each going to have a look at the jar and guess how many pieces there are. You have to tell me WHY you think there are that many!!
29, because they are hard to count. - Sian

35 because they are in the jar and they are hard to count. -Lily

Very good guesses Prep A! I guess 85 I tried counting some in the picture but I can't see the other side!! Owen's Mum
ReplyDeleteI think there may be about 28 because I can see 7 yellow pieces and there are 4 different colours. How many yello pieces can you see prep A ?
ReplyDeleteAlexia's dad guesses 64.. very cute comments
ReplyDeleteAlexia's dad guesses 64.. very cute comments
ReplyDeleteIsabelle's Dad guesses 60. I wonder what the clue will be tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking 23 , no real reason just the number that popped into my head!!
ReplyDeleteI am thinking 40, thus is what I think from what I can see in the jar, Kristy (Harry's Mum)
ReplyDeleteMy guess or estimate is 66. This is 6 pieces more than Jacob's guess. I like Jacob's guess. I think we will both be very close to the correct amount.
ReplyDeleteHi Nancy, we can see 12 yellow pieces. But we think there might be more in the middle and we can't see without opening the jar.
ReplyDeleteThe clue today is:
THE NUMBER IS BETWEEN 25 and 80 PIECES OF LEGO.
I WONDER IF YOUR ESTIMATE WILL CHANGE!!!!
Our new guesses with today's clue:
ReplyDeleteSian - 26
Talia - 27 because the jar has lots of lego
Gabriel - 57 because I can't count them
Eva - because it is a small jar
Clue #3 - The last number in the answer is the number zero.
ReplyDeleteWe worked out, the answer must be: 10 ,20. 30, 40 , 50. 60. 70. 80, 90 or 100
Here are our new guesses:
i Think there is 70 - Patrick
I think there is 60 - Talia
I think there is 80 - Owen
Clue number 3:
ReplyDeleteThere are;
2 extra long pieces
5 long pieces
16 medium pieces
14 small pieces
23 mini pieces
Mykah said the best way to work out the answer is to add them together. Isabelle said we could use a calculator, so we did!
We used the numbers of the clue and the + button to put all the numbers together, and guess what the answer is....
60!!!!!!!!
Lots of people guessed that there were 60 pieces of lego in the jar, well done!
We double checked the answer by counting them all.
We all thought the lego activity was so much fun!
Thankyou for playing with us!
We'll done Prep A that's a lot of Lego in the jar! Owens Mum
