You’re super excited for dinner tonight: Chicken nuggets is on the menu! But oh no: Chicken nuggets comes topped with Carrots. You don’t want to hurt the chef’s feelings, so you sneak every bit of Carrots off the plate and launch it into the sky on a Green hot air balloon. But Carrots doesn’t fly far before a hungry seagull gobbles it up. Problem solved, dinner served!
Can you find 3 Green objects near you? Which item is largest?
If you’re at a restaurant sharing 10 plates of Carrots with a seagull, how many different ways could you and the seagull sort those plates into 2 piles?
If there are twice as many Carrots-topped cupcakes as Chicken nuggets-topped ones, and there are 7 Chicken nuggets-topped ones, how many Carrots-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 Green – 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 Carrots 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 Carrots-topped cupcakes.
36 onions.
22 1/2 pounds, because there are 5 Wednesdays in May this year.
