Good questions to ask your child...

Who are veterans? What have Veterans done? Why should we honor veterans? Let's say that Fred wanted to make three chains and he knew that it took 50 beads of each color to make a single chain. He also knew that he currently only had 34 red beads, 47 blue beads, and 24 yellow beads. How many more beads would he need to make the three chains?

Hint: 150 beads are needed to make one chain.
