About this listen

 Max and Molly follow a cryptic ice cream clue to the snowy peaks of the Himalayas, where they meet a Sherpa named Amarita and learn about the legend of the Yeti. As they explore the region’s history, they uncover how myths can protect culture, ecology, and even scare off evil. Along the way, they break down measurement conversions and altitude math to track their frosty path. But with POGs lurking nearby, their mission takes on a whole new layer of importance. Math Concepts: Unit Conversion: Centimeters to inches/Inches to feet;Comparative Subtraction: Altitude difference between home and Mount Everest Base Camp (16,900 ft - 771 ft = 16,129 ft) Division & Estimation:Ice cream cost per sandwich (10 ÷ 12 ≈ $0.83)History/Geography Concepts: Introduction to the Himalayas & Mount Everest; Folklore and the legend of the Yeti; Importance of Sherpas in Himalayan expeditions. Critical Thinking – Cryptids and the balance between myth and meaning; Legends as tools for conservation, unity, and wonder
