You’re super excited for dinner tonight: Ice creams and Nuts is on the menu! But oh no: Ice creams and Nuts comes topped with Cabbage. You don’t want to hurt the chef’s feelings, so you sneak every bit of Cabbage off the plate and launch it into the sky on a Pink and Blue hot air balloon. But Cabbage doesn’t fly far before a hungry seagull gobbles it up. Problem solved, dinner served!
Can you find 3 Pink and Blue objects near you? Which item is largest?
If you’re at a restaurant sharing 10 plates of Cabbage with a seagull, how many different ways could you and the seagull sort those plates into 2 piles?
If there are twice as many Cabbage-topped cupcakes as Ice creams and Nuts-topped ones, and there are 7 Ice creams and Nuts-topped ones, how many Cabbage-topped cupcakes are there?
You’re opening your own restaurant and order a big box of 72 onions! But 1/2 of the onions are Pink and Blue – that can’t be good. How many onions do you need to toss in the compost?
Oh no! The onion people also keep delivering 4 1/2 pound boxes of Cabbage every Wednesday this May. How many pounds does that add up to for the month?
Different for everyone!
There are 5 ways that you and the birds could split 10 plates into 2 piles: 1+9, 2+8, 3+7, 4+6, 5+5.
14 Cabbage-topped cupcakes.
36 onions.
22 1/2 pounds, because there are 5 Wednesdays in May this year.
