Math is so much fun!!!! We had an amazing week! :) One of the exciting activities we worked hard on was during Math CAFE. Each child practiced using a budget to 'order' craft items for a paper bag hat. They practiced sorting, counting, adding, and subtracting money in order to prepare for a visit to the DOYLE HAT MAKING STORE. They counted out money (plastic coins) in order to pay for each item budgeted from the store. They could not go over $1.60. Students then purchased craft items, aligned to their budgets, to make celebration paper hats. Here are a few pictures of our learning fun. This is just one of the ways we practice math in a 'real world' way.
