Cardboard Arcade Math Project!

We are starting our cardboard arcade math project.  This is based on "Caine's Arcade", the story of a 9 year old boy in L.A. who built a full games arcade out of cardboard.  Right now we are busy gathering our materials and cardboard.  Before we begin to build our arcade, we will be practising how to make a budget, adding, subtracting and multiplying with different money amounts, measuring our materials needed and calculating what we will need to build on a $50.00 budget.  Here is the inspirational video, enjoy!
