Hacker, longing again for Wicked, devises a deliciously dreadful plan to impress her: He sneaks into Happily-Ever-Afterville, uncovers the Book of Unhappy Endings, releases them across the site and crowns himself king! Wicked, duly impressed, becomes his Queen and together they delight as unhappy endings unfold. To rescue the site, the CyberSquad must get the Book back from Hacker to recapture the unhappy endings, and seal it inside 3 nesting boxes with precisely fitting lids É all before sundown! Of course, Hacker has destroyed the lids, but the kids enlist the carpentry skills of one of the Three Little Pigs. Can the team figure out how to cut new lids in time — or will this tale end Unhappily Ever After? |
Bianca Busts a Move
Bianca's going to be in a talent show, and she's getting a little help from her friends. Her friend Rodney is teaching her an awesome dance routine, and her other friend Robert is letting them rehearse in his apartment. But when Bianca struggles with Rodney's dance moves, she accidentally falls onto Robert's table, shattering it to pieces. In order to reconstruct the table's square top, Bianca and Rodney measure the table's dimensions. After creating a template that doesn't fit properly, they learn that they need to use square corners to create the correct shape.
Math Message: When you need to copy and cut a simple shape to fit something you are building, you can use that shape's dimensions and other properties to copy and cut a new shape that matches your shape exactly.
