We were surprised that 4x and 5x made the same pattern. 2x and 7x made the same pattern. we were not surprised that 1x and 10x were the same - but 8x was a surprise! We were not surprised that 3x and 6x were the same. The 9x was a funny pattern! We know why. Do you?

Are you a tall rectangle, a wide rectangle or a square? Most of us are tall rectangles, 2 are wide rectangles and we have one sqaure - the same measurement floor to top of head as finger tip to finger tip. We also measured other parts of our body like our neck, waist, foot, handspan...
We are playing a place value game with sharks (100s) fish (10s) and eels (units). We start at zero and shake two dice (1-9) and add the numbers together. Then we take our fish. The first to get a shark wins. Or we can start with a shark and subtract the dice numbers - the first to zero wins.
We will show you some of our work. Please encourage us by writing positive comments or ask us questions. Mrs Ballantyne and Du Laoshi- Qingdao, China.
