I love to go to school on Fridays.

     We earn chips all week by doing what we are supposed to do, and we lose chips if we mess up. Then on Friday we count up our chips and see how much game time we have earned.

We will be using these chips to learn about
base five.

Rules
In base 5 the only numerals we can use are 0,1,2,3,4.

Each color chip has its place.

It is fun to count the chips using base 5.
We'll call it
Chip Talk.

This is how we count these chips.

2 reds, 1 white


We have 2 in the reds place and 1 in the whites place.

     I love to do puzzles and I have earned enough game time to finish this puzzle today.


Now that you can talk "Chip Talk", go to the lesson called "Chip Counting" and learn to count in base 5.

Look at all my chips!
