  1. I see a robber,a flock of geese a robot,musicians and a dog playing the piano.I wonder why a frog is on the fountain?I wonder if the robot is haunting the people?I wonder where the flock of geese is going?I wonder what the robber is stealing?I wonder if the jack’o lantern is alive?The relation to math is if you wanted to know how many people are there then you have to divide.Then count up the groups and add all them up.Another connection is if you were making a jack’o lantern you have to use geometry.If you were making treats you have to count how much change the person gets back.

    • Cameron, your questions are thought provoking! Now, when you talk about the math in the picture you need to explain more. How would you use geometry when making a jack o’lantern? What number sentences could you make from things in the picture?

    • say 50 in each group and there are 6 groups , there would be 300 people like 6 x 50=300.With the jack’o lantern you have to carve the face .So if a pumpkin pie was 10$ and a person payed 27$ , they would get 17 dollars back.

  2. 1.I notice 10 houses,a dead tree,a band,some snow,and and about 100 people. 2.I wonder if it is Christmas?,I wonder if they all live in the ten houses?,I wonder why there is trees on a house?,I wonder why there is a man on a house?. 3. counting the people 1 2 3,count the geese,Try to split the people,Split the kids from adults,Try to find all the singers.

    2. I wonder why there is so many people and I wonder why there is a man in a tree I also wonder why there is a lady with a fishing rope and I wonder why there is a penguin on the fishing rope.

    3. The contentions to math are a person doing math selling something they would have to add like 1,2,3 and so on and people keeping there houses by counting up there money to pay rent they would also have to add there is also a band
    and they might be getting payed and they have to count there money all together they would also have to add like 1,2,3 there is also a man putting up decorations and he has to do math to measure the building you would add in a different way they would use a tool and count by cm so like this 1 cm 2 cm and so on there is also a store and you would have to count up all the money to make sure they are giving you the right amount of money money is easy to count so they would just count is like this 1,2,3 and so on.

  5. 1. I notice that there is a Halloween prate
