Math : Today we did a 22% reduction of human buildings that are considered "non essential". This will be building such as popcorn/pretzel stands, restaurants, and the hotel (not the kid camp center as parents would consider that will be essential).
We also are applying $176 per cubic foot of structures. You should have found all the volume of all structures and exhibits and apply the cost to each to have a total cost for human structures and total cost for animal exhibits.
Zoo Project: Make sure you are caught up on your blueprint! Email me with any questions you have!
Writing: Think about your Seedfolk Story. We discussed the openings of each seedstory in the book. They start with a mix of present day to pasts, to being near the garden or being away. How will your story start? Think about it being 3-4 sentences right now. Will it be dialogue, setting, actions, inner thinking in the present or in the past to have developed the background of your character.

Math Zoo Project:
Spring arrived and you now have an increase in your animal populations. Mammals 17%, Reptiles 9%, Amphibians 23%, Birds 14% Use the formula %W=P to find the new number of animals you need to add to your exhibit then increase the square footage on your blueprint.
You will also need to calculate the volume of each of your exhibits and buildings. The heights are as follows:
All human buildings like restrooms, bathrooms, vet office, equipment room, pretzel/popcorn stands, restaurants are 12ft high.
Giraffe exhibit/housing is 35 ft tall, all other animal exhibits are 25ft tall.
Hotel/Kid Camp is 36ft tall.

Math: For Monday, you should have your "blue print" layout complete of your zoo, your list of all animals and buildings with sq ft noted and totals relative to each item ( Individual total for each mammal and then a total for all mammals).
Reading: Read Friday, Saturday, Sunday for more at least an hour each day in a novel. Be reflective of the book, Seedfolks. We finished reading it today and you should be thinking about it. What are the messages the author wants you to walk away with? Who was your favorite character? Why? Can you recall a few different characters and what they planted? What role they played in getting the garden up and running or even maintaining it?
