Mall of America

Today, we stopped by a human-made landmark, Mall of America, while in Minnesota.

We tied in some math (mental, decomposing/composing numbers, algorithm) by figuring out how many restaurants and stores are in the St Johns Town Center (using a directory list to find the total, 156) and comparing it to how many are in Mall of America (520) to find the difference. Next week, we will use our time at the Mall of America to learn a little bit about economics (introduce income, budget, opportunity cost, competition, scarcity, just to name a few).
