In Language and Math .......


  • In Language, we are talking about nouns ~ plural, singular, possessive, and plural possessive, and abbreviations.
·       I need your help.  In Math, we are working with money ~ counting, making change, and adding and subtracting amounts.  With making change, we are working on "counting on".  Example  ~ Your total is $4. 29.  You give the clerk a $5.00 bill.  If she did not have a cash register, she would hand you back and count~ 1 penny ($4.30), 2 dimes ($4.50), and 2 quarters ($5.00).  Your change would total $.71.  Count from your total to the amount you handed the clerk.  I hope this makes sense.  This is a tough skill, but an important one. Any help you can do at home with this,  would be great for us.   We will continue working at school!
