3RD GRADE MATH - ESTIMATING SUMS MULTIPLE CHOICE WORKSHEETS
Estimating Sums Multiple Choice Worksheets
In this post we will wrap up estimating sums for 3rd grade math level. As you know we need estimation skill when we don't need the exact answer and approximate answer is good. This skill enhance mental math abilities in kids and help them to gauze reasonableness of the answer in their math problems.
There are three worksheets in this post. First two on multiple choice questions on estimating sums and the third one is on some easy word problems to explore estimation further.
We have done estimating sums of 3 digit numbers or estimating by rounding to nearest hundreds. Kids can pursue it further to find the estimation of sum of numbers with four or five digits by applying the same skills learned so far.

This is really informative for me. I was skeptical about students learning estimates rather than the actual sums. I found myself needing to find the sum before knowing what the estimate would be. But now I understand more fully that this is a good tool to give to students.
Thanks for stopping by dear friend @dbennett. Yes, most often we need to find the exact sum of numbers as you said but it is useful to know the reasonable estimation of sum. Estimation force us to round the numbers up or down into tens, hundreds or thousands which is very helpful to guess the answer.
Very well explained worksheet having estimating sums of word problems @mathworksheets. Thanks for sharing the valuable content.
You are always welcome @gautam.
Multiple choice questions are most popular in the world. It's easy and informative. Thanks for sharing
Right @ziarul31, I like the multiple choice questions as they are quick if you know the concept but without the knowledge of the concept there are 75% chance of wrong and only 25% chances of being correct (in case of just guessing the answer).
Yes, I appreciate your opinion.
