And the winner is.... ... Mrs. McKnight's class !!!! You were right about the importance of the number 9 in the Chinese culture. It is the highest number. 10 already uses number 1 and number 0. Check out <a href="http://www.sjeds.com/blog/china/archives/24" rel="nofollow">this post</a> about more info on the importance on numbers. The pictures were taken at the Forbidden City, Temple of Heaven and Summer Palace. Good job! Great guesses!
