These worksheets will teach your students how to estimate numbers using a marked number line.

This section is great to give students a true visual on where a value is leaning towards. We suggest you ask your students to make sure everything is clear and very legible. Any inconsistencies can really hurt their ability to understand the concept. All the values that we present are on the positive number spectrum. We do not want to pull in negative values until we advance to fractional values. These worksheets start by estimating between zero and ten. Elementary students practice estimating numbers using a marked number line. Students are encouraged to make an estimate before counting to determine the correct answer.

These worksheets explain how to estimate the value of numbers on a number line.
