Exploring Big Numbers Through Simulations, Estimation, and Hands-on Learning
Conceptualizing large numbers is hard for children and grown-ups alike. 265 million U.S. residents live in cities… Almost a half billion people live in South America… Our global population is over 8 billion… When we hear such enormous quantities, our brains tend to put them all in a similar box of “a lot.”
In this free teacher webinar, we combine videos, simulations, and hands-on activities to make large numbers more accessible for middle childhood learners. Participants explore real-world big numbers, solve math riddles and challenges that help students visualize millions and billions, and estimate population size using sampling techniques.
This on-demand webinar is great for teachers of grades 3-8. Watch now!
