This is Mrs. Matthews' real world example of "why we need to learn this stuff." Using the scenario of helping the principal organize the fifth grade moving-up ceremony, students use their knowledge of factors, multiples, square numbers, arrays, and divisibility rules to determine seating arrangements and the ordering of products for the fifth grade party. Teachers can use this activity as a review of number and operations concepts or as an assessment for the unit.
