All About Money!

This week in Math we are learning about money.  We are learning to identify the penny, nickel and dime.  We are also learning how to count mixed coins.  The students have been enjoying playing school store.  I display items that they can buy with pretend money.  They have to read the tag that comes with the item they want to buy and then count out the coins to purchase the item.  This is a fun activity that can be played at home, too!  Please review coins on a daily basis.  Also, ask you child to sing the songs that go along with each coin!
