On Thursday we read the book
Spaghetti and Meatballs by Marilyn Burns. After we were finished reading we got out the blocks, tiles, geometric shapes and counters and tried to solve the problem of how to fit 32 people into tables for spaghetti dinner. We worked with a small group on building the groups. Most of us first tried 8 tables of 4. How would you arrange the tables to fit 32 people for dinner?
