Math:
- Let's continue to work with money. Please watch the following 2 videos:
- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z7hwaeaDk-I

- Today, we are going to learn how to count a group of different coins. Put on your table 1 quarter, 2 nickels and 1 penny. Group the coins that are alike together (so, make sure you put the nickels next to each other). Now, place them in greatest to least order. (quarter, nickel, nickel, penny). Now, you can figure out how much money you have. A quarter is 25 cents, a nickel is 5 cents.....so 25+5=30....now, let's add the other nickel....30+5=35....now, let's add the penny.....35+1=36. You have 36 cents.
- How much is 1 quarter, 2 dimes, and 3 pennies? Take out these coins and place them on your table. Put the coins that look alike together. Then, organize from greatest to least. Finally, add them up! How much did you get?
- The more you practice adding coins, the easier it gets....I promise! It just takes time. We will work on it when we get back into school too.
- Workbook pages 361-362
