Jellybean Jostle
This activity allows the player to print out an estimation activity to play with friends. A picture of spilled jellybeans appears on a 4 by 5 grid. Directions are to cut apart the grid into 20 squares which become playing cards. The activity leader allows the player to view the picture for a few seconds, then with the picture hidden, 3 sample cards are drawn, and based on the number of beans on the 3 sample cards, the player makes an estimate of the whole display, attempting to guess the number within 10.
