2. Choose Activities on the left-hand side.

3. Then click on Math Activity Supply List.

4.  Make a list of your supplies and answer the questions on your
      Choosing Supplies worksheet. *Make sure to not go over
      your 1,500 pound limit.

     with a calculator. 


Task 4 - Why These Supplies?

Now you have to explain why you chose the supplies you did.

Be prepared to talk about your reasons to the class.
