Calculators are Cool

The boys at this table wanted you all to see that they all got blue calculators.
The kids learned how to play a game called Broken Calculator.

They pick a number to show (like 12) and then they pick a broken calculator key (like 3). They have to show how they can make 12 without using the number 3. Please note that #2 of this picture has an error, (27+3) that has been fixed. :-) While that does equal 30, the 3 was the broken number, which means it can't be used.

Tons of fun, and the kids realized that they didn't need the calculators, that in fact, the calculators slowed them down!
