OVERESTIMATES AND UNDERESTIMATES

Overestimate : An overestimate happens when you round up.
Ex:
Pedro has 36 DVD´s of series and 57 DVD´s of movies. If he has 100 spaces, does he have enough for the DVD´s? Round to the nearest ten to estimate the sum.

36 rounds up to 40
+57 rpunds up to 60
-------
100 He has enough spaces

Each addened was rounded up so the estimated sum is greater than the actual sum. It is overestimate.

Underestimate : An underestimate happens when you round down.

Sara was in charge of seating the school show. She has set up 34 seats in the center and 23 seats on each side. She is expecting 70 people. Has she set up enough chairs? Round to the nearest ten to estimate the sum.

34 rounds down to 30
23 rounds down to 20
+23 rounds down to 20
-----
70 seats is the estimated sum.

Each addened ws roundes down, so she estimated the sum, 70, is less than the actual sum. It is an underestimated.

Estimate each sum by rounding to the nearest ten. Then tell whether each estimate is an overestimate or underestimate.

ex: 36+47 : (40+50) we overestimate.
  1. 23+44 :
  2. 66+87:
  3. 98+27:

Let´s work !!!

I hope you liked the art class of Monday, and if you want to made your own color wheel here is everything you´ll need :D

What you'll need:

• Pattern
• Cardboard
• 3 pieces of cellophane paper: red, blue, and yellow
• White glue
• Scissors
• Hole punch

1. Cut out the pattern for the color wheel, remember that we use a CD to make the pattern.
2. Trace around this pattern on cardstock six times. Cut out each piece, making sure to cut out the center.
3. Cut the cellophane windows just smaller than the outside of your frame, but larger than the inside measurement.
4. Sandwich a colored piece of cellophane between two pieces of cut out cardstock. Glue together to make a window. Repeat until all three windows are made.
5. When they are dry, stack on top of each other and punch a hole in the center of the narrow end and fasten together with a paper fastener.

Also here are two liks of some games that i found:

The Color Wheel

The Color Wheel
Color wheels show us how colors are related. They remind artists how to mix and think about colors.

The primary colors are:
-red
-blue
-yellow

Primary colors cannot be made from other colors. Artists create all the other colors of the rainbow by mixing together the primary colors.

The secondary colors are:
-green
-orange
-violet (purple)

Secondary colors are made by mixing two primary colors. Each secondary color is made from the two primary colors closest to it on the color wheel

Just by mixing these colors, you can get all the colors of the rainbow:
