How much is that pile of books? Term 3 Library competition

This term our students must guess the cost of a pile of books! 

Ariana and Willow in deep concentration 

Only a few clues have been shared - such as paperbacks costing less than hardback; how many books there are in the pile; and that the pile includes a mixture of New Zealand and international authors.

Judging by the answers received to date, the students are in for a big surprise!

As well as being a fun activity, it's also a subtle way of showing students the true cost of library books.
