This is not quite what Charlie’s bedroom looks like, but this does show you what a top-down layout map could look like, although it is very detailed (such as the blanket being pulled down a bit, the book on the desk, etc.)
Posted online as promised…
When I went to the paint store to buy paint for Charlie’s new bedroom, I brought the two dimensions for Charlie’s bedroom. (How wide it is and how long it is.) I asked the salesman if one gallon of paint would be enough, but he couldn’t answer me. Instead, he asked me another question. Why couldn’t he answer my question, and what question did he ask me?
All answers must be WRITTEN (or emailed), and both parts of the question MUST be answered. Correct answers to this OPTIONAL enrichment challenge will earn students a HOMEWORK PASS good for skipping one math assignment during this unit!
…aaaaaaaand, GO!
