Christmas Cards

Can you guess  how many Christmas cards there would be if we all sent everyone in our class one?

In a class of 33 we would send 32 each.

To find the total we would multiply those numbers

That means there would be…

1056 Christmas cards!

The Eco Committee thinks that is too much! We are asking that we all just write one card to the class. These will be put on a display and then recycled when we break up for Christmas.
