Unfortunately I missed my first graders this week because I was out sick on the days of service. Looking ahead to next week - we will be working on money enrichment activities from choice board and practicing our inferencing skills.
This week we began our exploration of money. Students in first grade traditionally deal in money amounts made with pennies, nickels, and dimes, but we went a step farther and included quarters. We started by examining strategies for counting money. Next we participated in a set of stations where we practiced counting money and displaying a monetary amount (in more than one way) using various coin combinations. Stations included: Computer Activities Counting Coins Challenge Stamp It Out
