Good Afternoon!
We kicked off our day by talking about money for our PREK1 sign in activity. We identified two types of money: coins and dollar bills. Children identified two different coins on the sign in board and signed their name under the penny. We talked about how the penny is the only copper coin and the rest are silver!
Later on in group, we read a book titled ‘Spend It!’. The main character in the story gets an allowance each week and gets 3 carrots. On the weekend, he wanted to spend his carrots but had to pick between three different things that were all different amounts. He decided on a pogo stick which was exactly 3 carrots! This led into a discussion about how things cost different dollar amounts. We looked at a poster with various things to buy at Target. Each child chose one thing to buy and had to get the correct dollar amount to buy the item with! Ryan, on the other hand, couldn’t quite make up his mind so he decided to SAVE his money for something he really wanted later on 
.
We hope you enjoy some pictures from our day!
