Answer: approximately one hundred million pennies! Do you know how many dollars that is? hint: think about how many pennies are in one dollar! (I teach 6th grade)
So...Thing #5 has been the most time consuming for me so far. I thought it was fun to look through a bunch of pictures on Flickr until I had to find a picture using keywords from my subject and curriculum which is Math - oh, how exciting! (not really). I realized quickly, I'm going to have to get creative when it comes to my subject area. I started thinking about how math is in everything - and I thought about money!
Then I thought about the math involved in recipes (measuring ingredients)...like to make ice cream!

Isn't Flickr cool? There are so many possibilities. I'm sure you will think of tons of uses for it! That's how I was. Once I got started, it just seemed endless. Keep up the good work!
Yummy blog. I think I need an ice cream break now. Your students will love finding math in everything!
Can someone tell me if i did this right? I'm i supposed to have something labeled near the pictures i took from Flickr ("some rights reserved" or something? - i got them from the "Creative Commons", but i'm still a little confused)
