Prediction Jar

This is our prediction jar. This week I filled it up with mints and the kids wrote down how many mints they thought were in the jar. The one closest to the actual amount in the jar won. In the middle of our lessons we took a break and I told them who was the winner. . . Koby guessed the exact number (20). The kids really liked this game. I hope to do this each week. Koby is in charge of it this week. I wonder what he will put in his jar. Last year Koby's teacher played this game with the kids each week. Koby looked forward to it and won a couple of times. Once a child brought in a carved out pumpkin with a pile of seeds in the bottom. They can get creative or keep it simple. Either way it is lots of fun.
