Great price!!
By Second Grade Teacher
This is lightweight and plastic, which makes sense for the price. The "Estimation Station" and turning knob on the front are actually on a sticker. My kids are delighted with our big fancy upgrade from a big glass jar, and the scoop enhances the function of the estimation station by increasing the number sense aspect for students.

I ordered this to teach estimation with my second graders. It was perfect. They get it and they love doing it because whatever I fill it with, they get to have one when we are done. Small, easy to fill and fun way to practice estimation for any age.

Fun guessing!
By Cherise Kachelmuss
This kit includes an Estimation Station which has the station with a lid and cup. You pour whatever you want in the box and it makes it an easier way for kids to make educated guesses. I admit I am always amazed at how people can make guesses on those jars of candy and other items. I am always way off! With this, I am trying to work on our guesses and teaching my kids with it. I would have never thought it was something I should think about but I am amazed at what you can learn from it. I am working on how big things (like marshmallows) take up a lot of room but count for a little and then there are items like jellybeans that you can fit a whole lot of. My boys thought it was so funny how we added things and worked on counting with them.
The top does come off so you can store the items or carry them along, there is a lid too that attaches to keep the items contained. It also makes it easy to clean it. This is great for both parents to work with or teachers.
