Math

We will continue our unit on money this week and have a quiz on Thursday.  If you have time at home, gather some quarters, dimes, nickels and pennies for your child to practice counting.   We count up to $1.00.  We first sort, then order from greatest value to least and then count.  They should also practice trying to make a given amount up to a dollar.
