Problem Analysis:
The worksheet asks the student to count and estimate the number of items in three different categories:
1.
Children: Count and estimate the number of children shown.
2.
Dots: Count and estimate the number of dots shown.
3.
Ducks: Count and estimate the number of ducks shown.
Solution Approach:
For each category, we will:
1.
Count the exact number of items.
2.
Estimate the number by rounding to the nearest 10.

Step 1: Counting and Estimating Children
####
Count:
- The image shows two rows of children.
- Each row has 10 children.
- Total number of children = \( 10 + 10 = 20 \).
####
Estimate:
- Since the exact count is 20, which is already a multiple of 10, the estimate is also 20.
Answer for Children:
- Count: 20
- Estimate: 20
---
Step 2: Counting and Estimating Dots
####
Count:
- The image shows three rows of dots.
- The first two rows have 10 dots each.
- The third row has 4 dots.
- Total number of dots = \( 10 + 10 + 4 = 24 \).
####
Estimate:
- To estimate, round 24 to the nearest 10.
- 24 is closer to 20 than to 30.
- Therefore, the estimate is 20.
Answer for Dots:
- Count: 24
- Estimate: 20

Step 3: Counting and Estimating Ducks
####
Count:
- The image shows five rows of ducks.
- Each row has 10 ducks.
- Total number of ducks = \( 10 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 10 = 50 \).
####
Estimate:
- Since the exact count is 50, which is already a multiple of 10, the estimate is also 50.
Answer for Ducks:
- Count: 50
- Estimate: 50
---
Final Answers:
1.
Children:
- Count: 20
- Estimate: 20
2.
Dots:
- Count: 24
- Estimate: 20
3.
Ducks:
- Count: 50
- Estimate: 50
Boxed Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{
\begin{array}{ll}
\text{Children:} & \text{Count: 20, Estimate: 20} \\
\text{Dots:} & \text{Count: 24, Estimate: 20} \\
\text{Ducks:} & \text{Count: 50, Estimate: 50}
\end{array}
}
\]
