we will be undertaking an investigation for whimsical wednesday. look in the kitchen cupboard and select an item that is sold by weight, such as a can of vegetables, a box of dry pasta, a bag of chips, anything you wish to select that has not yet been opened. open the package and count how many chips, green beans, spaghetti strands. how many is contained per weight of the package? report your findings to the whimsey project. (did you munch any while counting?!... *giggle*)
*this morning counting commenced when a new bag of chocolate chips (weighing 1 pound, 14 ounces) was opened in order to move the chips from the bag to a container. the bag contained 907 chips. a discovery in the counting that was somewhat satisfying: the chocolate chips were irregular in shape and size. and, yes, i did munch while counting!
