Yesterday we found out!
We played a game where you had to earn money to buy a milkshake.
In groups of three we made our own houses. We all had jobs to do so we could earn enough money to buy a milkshake at the end of the game.
Some of us were farmers. We got paid to milk a cow and pick strawberries.
Others worked in the milkshake factory. We bought milk and strawberries from the farm and turned it into flavoured milk.
Ten there was shop keepers we sold the milk in our shop.
Everyone earned $3, but out of this we had to pay for electricity for our houses and petrol for our cars so we could get to work and to the shop to buy a milkshake.
By the end of the game we only had $1 left! Just enough to buy a milk shake!
Vow, Te Waipuna o Tamaki, what a wonderful fun-filled day you have had with your buddies from Room 4. It must have been a great rich language experience obviously filled with a lot of fun maths concepts. I admire how some of you have been inspired by the experience and have shown your Ako in your beautiful writing. Ka pai. Keep up the great work!
