Day 16- Cinco de Mayo....belated!

Today was our fiesta for day 16!! We had some yummy homemade refried beans, and cheesy nachos.  Delish!! This morning to exercise our brains before we ate we got to do some real life work with fractions. The kids had to help us solve how much of the items we needed and what fraction of the amount would each student get.  I think these conceptual problems are great to show kids what math looks like in the real world, especially fractions which we use so much more often than we realize!!  Ole!!!
