On Monday, we started a new unit called "The Teachers' Lounge." During this unit, we'll explore different situations and conversations that occur in the Teachers' Lounge. Here's our first one:
Yesterday
in the teacher’s lounge, I bumped into the woman that fills the vending
machines. One vending machine holds water, and the other vending
machine holds juice. I was curious about how many bottles the machines
each held, and she told me that each machine holds 156 bottles!
The Water Machine
I
noticed that there were a bunch of six packs next to the water vending
machine—the woman had to tear the packs open in order to fill the
machine. That got me thinking. I wonder how many six packs the machine
will hold?
The Juice Machine
The
other vending machine holds juice. It also holds 156 bottles. There
are six different flavors of juice—apple, cranberry, lemonade,
grapefruit, grape and orange. The machine holds an equal amount of each
kind of juice. I was wondering how many bottles of each flavor fit in
the juice machine when it is full?
