We start each day with calendar math. On Mondays, we use a variety of money tasks that involves the number of the day. This first week as we learned the routines and expectations of the class, we watched Stripes and Bailey explain the coin touch points, learning & practicing those touch points counting by 5s. Counting by 5s is important for money, reading a clock and telling time, addition, multiplication and division! The Money Song Rap! | |
