Money, money, money

In Room 9 we have been introduced to money.  We explored coins and notes from different countries and learned that this is called different currencies.  We have also been practising skip counting in tens to help us when we are counting our coins.

On Thursday we went 'shopping' and each child had $5 to spend at the supermarket catalogue.  We are learning which coins are more valuable than others.  Handling money will make us pretty savvy when it comes to buying things.
