Congratulations to Mallory and Sophia who accepted the challenge to organize 100 buckets. They began with 100 buckets scattered on the floor. They began to organize them numerically but soon discovered that they were able to recognize patterns and from there they constructed a hundreds chart! A lot of work, patience, and collaboration to build it!
