money, money, money!

We are having such a fun time learning about money this week! We are talking about why it's important to learn how to count money and how we will need these skills as we get older. If you get the oppurtunity to use real world examples with your child, do so! Question them on what coins you might need to buy something when you are at the store. They are excited about using the play money in the classroom. Next week, we will begin reviewing for the SAT 10 which will be at the end of March. Thank you for your support at home.
